Showing a function is harmonic given some information

45 Views Asked by At

"Let $a ∈\mathbb C$ and $r > 0$.

Let $f : S(a, r) → R$ be continuous. Let $g : B(a, r) → R$ be the Poisson integral of $f$. Then

(1) $g$ is harmonic on $B(a, r)$ and

(2) $f \cup g : B(a, r) → R$ is continuous."

The second part regarding continuity is easy enough, but how should I handle the first part? It seems best to show that $g$ is the real part of a holomorphic function on $B(a,r)$ but how would I go about doing this? Any help is greatly appreciated.
