Abstract
We investigate the different notions of solutions to the double-phase equation which is characterized by the fact that both ellipticity and growth switch between two different types of polynomial according to the position. We introduce the -harmonic functions of nonlinear potential theory, and then show that -harmonic functions coincide with the distributional and viscosity solutions, respectively. This implies that the distributional and viscosity solutions are exactly the same.
