I'm trying to solve the following problem:




Suppose that $u:mathbb D setminus0 to mathbb R$ is harmonic and that $lim_zto 0 u(z)=infty$.



Show that $u$ can be written as $$u(z)=beta ln |z| + v(z) $$ where $betain mathbb R setminus 0$ and $v:mathbb D to mathbb R $ is harmonic in $mathbb D$ (Here $mathbb D = z $).




I was also given the following hint:




Hint: Show that the residue of $(u_x - i u_y) $ is real.




I believe that the solution sould be related to Dirichlet's problem, and especially to Poisson's formula, but I don't understand how to use those to solve it.



Any help would will be appreciated!

    On any simply connected open set $Usubset 0<$, $u(z) = Re(f(z))$ where $f$ is analytic on $U$, and the analytic continuation of $f$ is analytic over any curve $subset 0<$, and over closed curves, the continuation $f_gamma$ differs off $f$ by a purely imaginary constant. Let $A = lim_t to 0 f(e^2i pi (1-t))- f(e^2i pi t)$ which is purely imaginary. Then $g(z)=f(z)- A fraclog z2ipi$ is analytic on $0 < |z| < 1$.

    Thank you for your answer! Why can we use analytic continuation (for $f$)? Also I'd love an explantion for the definition of $A$ (we use $f(e^2pi i t)$, but $f$ is only defined on $Usubseteq 0<$....)

    From the Poisson kernel you can construct $f$ analytic on $0<|z|<1, z not in (-1,0]$ such that $u(z) = Re(f(z))$. The point is that moving the contour you used for the Poisson kernel shows $f$ can be continued analytically along every curve $gamma subset 0 < |z| < 1$ and that when continued analytically along the closed curve $gamma : r e^it, t in [0,2pi]$ then $fmapsto f_gamma$ with $Re(f_gamma-f)=0$ thus $f_gamma-f$ is constant $=A in i BbbR$ and hence $f-fracA2ipi log z$ is analytic on $0< |z|< 1$
