Harmonic functions on annuli of graphs. (English) Zbl 1005.31005

Ann. Math. Blaise Pascal 8, No. 2, 47-59 (2001).
The author proves the “relative connectedness” of graphs which satisfy a polynomial volume growth and a Poincaré-type inequality on balls. By “relative connectedness” it is meant that every two vertices at distance \(R\) from a vertex \(x\) can be joined by a path within an annulus. In the case of Cayley graph of groups having polynomial volume growth, the above result uses to obtain a Poincaré-type inequality on the annuli.
