Is this function a subharmonic function?

Does anyone know, is $h\left(z,w\right):=\frac{\left|zw\right|}{\left|z\right|+\left|w\right|}$ for $z$ and $w$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ of the complex plane a (pluri)subharmonic function? ...

Dirichlet problem: Obtaining the harmonic measure through Riesz representation theorem

For the Dirichlet problem on a bounded open domain $D \subset \Bbb R^n$ $$ \Delta u=0, \text{ on } D, \\ \left. u\right|_{\partial D}=f \in C\left( \partial D\right). $$ With a fix $x$ in $D$, an ...

Harmonic function with condition on part of its boundary

Suppose $u$ is harmonic in the interior of the unit square $0 \leq x \leq 1$, $0\leq y\leq1$. Suppose furthermore that $u$ and its first derivatives continuously extend to the bottom side $0\leq x ...

Show that function is a constant

Let $\phi \in L^2(S^{n})$. Let $f=\phi^2$ and let $f_j^m$ be a Fourier coefficients of $f$. Help me please to show that if $$ \sum_{j,i}c_jf^m_jY^i_j=\phi, $$ then $f=constant$. Here $Y_j^i$ is the ...
