A well known property of a harmonic function in a ball is that its value at the centre equals the mean of its values on the boundary. Less well known is the more general property that its value at any point x equals the mean over all chords through x of its values at the ends of the chord, linearly interpolated at x. In this paper we show that a similar property holds for polyharmonic functions of any order when linear interpolation is replaced by two-point Hermite interpolation of odd degree. |
