Abstract: | In this paper we prove new results for p harmonic functions, p≠2, 1<p<∞, in Lipschitz and starlike Lipschitz ring domains. In particular we prove the boundary Harnack inequality, Theorem 1, for the ratio of two positive p harmonic functions vanishing on a portion of the boundary of a Lipschitz domain, with constants only depending on p,n and the Lipschitz constant of the domain. For p capacitary functions, in starlike Lipschitz ring domains, we prove an even stronger result, Theorem 2, showing that the ratio is Hölder continuous up to the boundary. Moreover, for p capacitary functions in starlike Lipschitz ring domains we prove, Theorems 3 and 4, appropriate extensions to p≠2, 1<p<∞, of famous results of Dahlberg 12] and Jerison and Kenig 25] on the Poisson kernel associated to the Laplace operator (i.e. p=2). |
