Abstract

An improvement of the Liouville theorem for discrete harmonic functions on Z2\mathbb{Z}^2 is obtained. More precisely, we prove that there exists a positive constant ε\varepsilon such that if uu is discrete harmonic on Z2\mathbb{Z}^2 and for each sufficiently large square QQ centered at the origin u1|u|\le 1 on a (1ε)(1-\varepsilon) portion of QQ then uu is constant.
