Abstract

We study the boundary value problems for harmonic functions on open connected subsets of post-critically finite (p.c.f.) self-similar sets, on which the Laplacian is defined through a strongly recurrent self-similar local regular Dirichlet form. For a p.c.f. self-similar set KK, we prove that for any open connected subset ΩK\Omega\subset K whose "geometric" boundary is a graph-directed self-similar set, there exists a finite number of matrices called flux transfer matrices\textit{flux transfer matrices} whose products generate the hitting probability from a point in Ω\Omega to the "resistance" boundary Ω\partial \Omega. The harmonic functions on Ω\Omega can be expressed by integrating functions on Ω\partial \Omega against the probability measures. Furthermore, we obtain a two-sided estimate of the energy of a harmonic function in terms of its values on Ω\partial \Omega.
