Positive Harmonic Functions on Graphs with Nilpotent Group Actions

Functional Analysis 2023-05-03 v1

Abstract

We study directed weighted graphs which are invariant under a nilpotent and cocompact group action. In particular, we consider the conic section K of the set of positive harmonic functions. We characterise the set of extreme points of the convex and compact set K as the set of multiplicative elements in K. Moreover, we study positive generalised eigenfunctions for a given parameter λ\lambda. We find that the topological space MλM_\lambda of multiplicative λ\lambda-harmonic functions is homeomorphic to a sphere for λ\lambda below a certain threshold.
