Abstract

We prove Liouville type theorems for pp-harmonic functions on exterior domains of the dd-dimensional Euclidean space, where 1<p<1<p<\infty and d2d\geq 2. We show that every positive pp-harmonic function satisfying zero Dirichlet, Neumann or Robin boundary conditions and having zero limit as x|x| tends to infinity is identically zero. In the case of zero Neumann boundary conditions, we establish that any semi-bounded pp-harmonic function is constant if 1<p<d1<p<d. If pdp\ge d, then it is either constant or it behaves asymptotically like the fundamental solution of the homogeneous pp-Laplace equation.
