Abstract

Let (X,W)(X,\mathcal W) be a balayage space, 1W1\in \mathcal W, or - equivalently - let W\mathcal W be the set of excessive functions of a Hunt process on a locally compact space XX with countable base such that W\mathcal W separates points, every function in W\mathcal W is the supremum of its continuous minorants and there exist strictly positive continuous u,vWu,v\in \mathcal W such that u/v0u/v\to 0 at infinity. We suppose that there is a Green function G>0G>0 for XX, a metric ρ\rho on XX and a decreasing function g ⁣:[0,)(0,]g\colon[0,\infty)\to (0,\infty] having the doubling property and a mild upper decay such that GgρG\approx g\circ\rho and the capacity of balls of radius rr is approximately 1/g(r)1/g(r). It is shown that bounded harmonic functions are H\"older continuous, if the constant function 11 is harmonic and jumps out of balls admit a polynomial estimate. The latter is proven if scaling invariant Harnack inequalities hold.
