Abstract

To obtain groups with bounded harmonic functions (which are not hyperbolic), one of the most frequent way is to look at some semi-direct products (\eg lamplighter groups). The aim here is to show that many of these semi-direct products do not admit harmonic functions with gradient in p\ell^p, for p[1,[p\in [1,\infty[.
