A note on bounded harmonic functions over homogeneous trees
Francisco Javier González Vieli
Abstract. Let \(\mathcal{T}_k\) be the homogeneous tree of degree \(k\geq 3\). J.M. Cohen and F. Colonna have proved that if \(f\) is a bounded harmonic function on \(\mathcal{T}_k\), then \(|f(x)-f(y)|\leq \|f\|_\infty\cdot 2(k-2)/k\) for any adjacent vertices \(x\) and \(y\) in \(\mathcal{T}_k\). We give here a new and very simple proof of this inequality.
Keywords: bounded harmonic function, homogeneous tree.
