In this subsection II.C, we consider two functions of class $\mathcal{C}^2$, $u : \mathbb{R}^{*+} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and $v : \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and we set $$\forall (r,\theta) \in \mathbb{R}^{*+} \times \mathbb{R} \quad f(r\cos(\theta), r\sin(\theta)) = u(r)v(\theta)$$ We now assume $\lambda \neq 0$. Which are the solutions of (II.1) that extend continuously to 0?
Show an analogous result to Q34 for harmonic functions: for a harmonic function $g$ on $D(0,R)$, show that $\forall r \in [0, R[$, $|g(0)| \leqslant \sup_{t \in \mathbb{R}} |g(r\cos(t), r\sin(t))|$.

Let $h$ be a function from $\mathbb{R}$ to $\mathbb{R}$, continuous and $2\pi$-periodic on $\mathbb{R}$. We seek to solve the Dirichlet problem on the unit disk; we need to determine the function or functions $f$ defined and continuous on $\overline{D(0,1)}$, of class $\mathcal{C}^2$ on $D(0,1)$, and such that $$\begin{cases} \Delta f = 0 \text{ on } D(0,1) \\ \forall t \in \mathbb{R}, f(\cos(t), \sin(t)) = h(t) \end{cases}$$ For this, we set, for any complex number $z$ such that $|z| < 1$, $$g(z) = \frac{1}{2\pi} \int_0^{2\pi} h(t) \mathcal{P}(t,z) \, \mathrm{d}t \quad \text{where} \quad \mathcal{P}(t,z) = \operatorname{Re}\left(\frac{\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}t} + z}{\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}t} - z}\right)$$ Show that the function $z \mapsto \frac{\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}t} + z}{\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}t} - z}$ is expandable in a power series for $|z| < 1$ and calculate its power series expansion. Deduce that the function $(x,y) \mapsto g(x + \mathrm{i}y)$ is a harmonic function on $D(0,1)$.
Let two real numbers $a$ and $c$ such that $c \in D$. Determine the solutions expandable as power series of the differential equation $$x y''(x) + (c - x) y'(x) - a y(x) = 0.$$ We will express these solutions using the Pochhammer symbol and specify the algebraic structure of their set.
