Linear combinations of harmonic measures and quadrature domains of signed measures with small supports

Makoto Sakai · Proceedings of the Edinburgh Mathematical Society · 1999

In this paper we discuss the shape of the quadrature domain of a signed measure for harmonic functions. It is known that the quadrature domain of a positive measure with small support is like a ball if the total measure is large enough. We show that, on the contrary, if the measure is not positive then the quadrature domain can be close to an arbitrary domain. This follows from a lemma concerning linear combinations of harmonic measures.
