Liouville type theorems for the p-harmonic functions

Abstract

We show that the Dirichlet problem at infinity is unsolvable for the p-Laplace equation for any nonconstant continuous boundary data, for certain range of p>n, on an n-dimensional Cartan-Hadamard manifold constructed from a complete noncompact shrinking gradient Ricci soliton. Using the steady gradient Ricci soliton, we find an incomplete Riemannian metric on ${\mathbb{R}}^2$ with positive Gauss curvature such that every positive p-harmonic function must be constant for $p\ge 4$.
