On harmonic functions of killed random walks in convex cones

Abstract

We prove the existence of uncountably many nonnegative harmonic functions for random walks in the euclidean space with non-zero drift, killed when leaving general convex cones with vertex in 0. We also make the natural conjecture about the Martin boundary for lattice random walks in general convex cones in two dimensions. Proving that the set of harmonic functions found is the full Martin boundary for these processes is an open problem.
