Boundary behaviour of $\lambda$-polyharmonic functions on regular trees

Abstract

This paper studies the boundary behaviour of $\lambda$-polyharmonic functions for the simple random walk operator on a regular tree, where $\lambda$ is complex and $|\lambda|> \rho$, the $\ell^2$-spectral radius of the random walk. In particular, subject to normalisation by spherical, resp. polyspherical functions, Dirichlet and Riquier problems at infinity are solved and a non-tangential Fatou theorem is proved.
