Representations of harmonic functions by means of integrals taken over the harmonic boundary ΔR of a Riemann surface R enable one to study the classification theory of Riemann surfaces in terms of topological properties of ΔR (cf. [6; 4; 1; 7]). In deducing such integral representations, essential use is made of the fact that the functions in question attain their maxima and minima on ΔR.The corresponding maximum principle in higher dimensions was discussed for bounded harmonic functions in [3]. In the present paper we consider Dirichlet-finite harmonic functions. We shall show that every such function on a subregion G of a Riemannian N-space R attains its maximum and minimum on the set , where ∂G is the relative boundary of G in R and the closures are taken in Royden's compactification R*. As an application we obtain the harmonic decomposition theorem relative to a compact subset K of R* with a smooth ∂(K ∩ R).

Harmonic functions with certain boundedness properties on a given open Riemann surface R attain their maxima and minima on the harmonic boundary ΔB of R. The significance of such maximum principles lies in the fact that the classification theory of Riemann surfaces related to harmonic functions reduces to a study of topological properties of Δ(cf. [11; 8; 3; 12].For the corresponding problem in higher dimensions we shall first show that the complement of ΔR with respect to the Royden boundary ΓR of a Riemannian N-space R is harmonically negligible: given any non-empty compact subset E of ΓR – ΔR there exists an Evans superharmonic function v, i.e., a positive continuous function on R* = R ∪ ΓR, superharmonic on R, with v = 0 on ΔR, v ≡ ∞ on E, and with a finite Dirichlet integral over R.

Abstract Let R be a compact Riemann surface and $$\Gamma $$ Γ be a Jordan curve separating R into connected components $$\Sigma _1$$ Σ 1 and $$\Sigma _2$$ Σ 2 . We consider Calderón–Zygmund type operators $$T(\Sigma _1,\Sigma _k)$$ T ( Σ 1 , Σ k ) taking the space of $$L^2$$ L 2 anti-holomorphic one-forms on $$\Sigma _1$$ Σ 1 to the space of $$L^2$$ L 2 holomorphic one-forms on $$\Sigma _k$$ Σ k for $$k=1,2$$ k = 1 , 2 , which we call the Schiffer operators. We extend results of Max Schiffer and others, which were confined to analytic Jordan curves $$\Gamma $$ Γ , to general quasicircles, and prove new identities for adjoints of the Schiffer operators. Furthermore, let V be the space of anti-holomorphic one-forms which are orthogonal to $$L^2$$ L 2 anti-holomorphic one-forms on R with respect to the inner product on $$\Sigma _1$$ Σ 1 . We show that the restriction of the Schiffer operator $$T(\Sigma _1,\Sigma _2)$$ T ( Σ 1 , Σ 2 ) to V is an isomorphism onto the set of exact holomorphic one-forms on $$\Sigma _2$$ Σ 2 . Using the relation between this Schiffer operator and a Cauchy-type integral involving Green’s function, we also derive a jump decomposition (on arbitrary Riemann surfaces) for quasicircles and initial data which are boundary values of Dirichlet-bounded harmonic functions and satisfy the classical algebraic constraints. In particular we show that the jump operator is an isomorphism on the subspace determined by these constraints.

Given a harmonic function u on a Riemann surface R, we define a period functionfor every one-dimensional cycle γ of the Riemann surface R. Γx(R) denote the totality of period functions Γu such that harmonic functions u satisfy a boundedness property X. As for X, we let B stand for boundedness, and D for the finiteness of the Dirichlet integral.
