AbstractWe consider a class of fractal subsets of d formed in a manner analogous to the construction of the Sierpinski carpet. We prove a uniform Harnack inequality for positive harmonic functions; study the heat equation, and obtain upper and lower bounds on the heat kernel which are, up to constants, the best possible; construct a locally isotropic diffusion X and determine its basic properties; and extend some classical Sobolev and Poincaré inequalities to this setting.

Positive Harmonic Functions

If H(ξ, η) is a harmonic function which is defined and positive in η > 0, then there is a non-negative number D and a bounded non-decreasing function G(x) such that(For a proof, see Loomis and Widder, Duke Math. J. 9 (1942), 643–5.) If we writewhere λ > 1, then the equationdefines a harmonic function h which is positive in υ > 0. Hence there is a non-negative number d and a bounded non-decreasing function g(x) such thatThe problem of finding the connexion between the functions G(x) and g(x) has been mentioned by Loomis (Trans. American Math. Soc. 53 (1943), 239–50, 244).
