Solution 9.

See text and/or instructor's solution manual.

Solution.  The function  [Graphics:../Images/HarmonicFunctionModHome_gr_707.gif]  is an analytic function.

Hence  [Graphics:../Images/HarmonicFunctionModHome_gr_708.gif]  is an analytic function.

By Theorem 3.8  the real and imaginary parts of  [Graphics:../Images/HarmonicFunctionModHome_gr_709.gif]  are harmonic functions,  i. e.  

                    both  [Graphics:../Images/HarmonicFunctionModHome_gr_710.gif]  are harmonic functions.  

Therefore  [Graphics:../Images/HarmonicFunctionModHome_gr_711.gif]  is a harmonic function.
