a) Show that the set of harmonic polynomials is a vector subspace of $\mathcal{P}$.
b) For all $m \geqslant 2$, we denote by $\Delta_m$ the restriction of $\Delta$ to $\mathcal{P}_m$. Show that $\operatorname{dim}(\operatorname{ker} \Delta_m) \geqslant 2m+1$.
c) What can be deduced about the dimension of the vector space of harmonic polynomials?
