Gradient walks and p-harmonic functions

We consider a class of stochastic processes having a connection to p-harmonic functions. In particular, we obtain stochastic approximations that converge uniformly to a p-harmonic function, and also with an explicit convergence rate. The main difficulty is how to deal with the zero set of the gradie...

Zusammenfassung:We consider a class of stochastic processes having a connection to p-harmonic functions. In particular, we obtain stochastic approximations that converge uniformly to a p-harmonic function, and also with an explicit convergence rate. The main difficulty is how to deal with the zero set of the gradient of the underlying function.
