Notation. Let A, B be subsets of a topological space. We say A ⊂⊂ B if A, the closure of A, is contained in ˚B, the interior of B.
Let (Ω, z) be a coordinate patch of a Riemann surface S. Then for some a ∈
C
and r > 0, if B(a; r) ⊂⊂ z(Ω), then we call Bz(a; r) := z−1(B(a; r)) a z-disk.1 Das Dirichletsche Integral
Notation (p.107). Let S denote a connected (oriented) Riemann surface. Any- thing related to “K” denotes a z-disk for some z. In particular, we arbitrarily fix a point p0 ∈ S, a coordinate map z0 with z0(p0) = 0, and some appropriate 0 < R0 < R00. Then we call K0 := Bz0(p0; R0) the hole, call K00 := Bz0(p0; R00) the lid, call K00\K0 the lock-ring, and call S\K0 the punched surface.
Recall (p93, p72). For η = (η1dx + η2dy) and ξ = (ξ1dx + ξ2dy) being two 1- forms, we define [η, ξ] := η ∧ (∗ξ) = (η1ξ1+ η2ξ2)(dx ∧ dy), which is symmetric and bilinear on the two inputs.
Definition (p.97). Let A ⊆ S be a region, and v, w ∈ C1(A). The Dirichlet integral is defined to be DA(v, w) :=
R
A[dv, dw]. If v = w, we denote the integral by DA(v) := DA(v, v) ≥ 0. The set of admissible functions is defined to be
M
(A) := {v ∈ C1( ˚A) ∩ C0(A) : DA(v) < ∞}Notation (p.114). For v ∈
M
(K), define v to be the harmonic function on K that agrees with v on ∂K (which may be derived from Poisson’s integration formula).Lemma 1 (p.97). ∀v ∈
M
(K), DK(v) − DK(v) = DK(v − v) ≥ 0.(hint: DK(v, v − v) = 0)
Theorem 2 (p.106). Let Φ be a harmonic function on the lid which is regular in the lock-ring, and satisfies ∂Φ∂n = 0 along ∂K0. There exists a harmonic function U such that U is regular in S\K0 and that U − Φ is regular in K0.

Definition (p.108). The set of competing functions is defined to be F := {(v, v∗) : v ∈
M
(S\K0), v∗ ∈M
(K00), v ≡ v∗+ Φ in K00\K0}Whenever there is no ambiguity, we tend to use v in place of (v, v∗). We define the potential to be D(v) := DS\K
0(v) + DK0(v∗).
Remark (p.108). The potential can be also derived by the following process: Let a smoothing function λ be fixed, which is identically 1 in the hole, and vanishes outside the lid. We define the 2-forms Ψ = (1 − λ)[dv, dv] + λ[dv∗, dv∗] over S, and that Ψ0 = λ ([dv, dv] − [dv∗, dv∗]) over K00\K0. Then D(v) can be given by the sum of Dλ(v) :=
R
SΨ and Dλ0(v) :=
R
K00\K0Ψ0. Fact 3 (pp.108–109).
1. ∀v ∈ F , 0 ≤ D(v) < ∞.
2. If U exists, then (u, u∗) := (U |S\K
0, U |K0
0 − Φ) ∈F .
3. If Φ can be extended on an open disk K that contains the closure of the lid, then there exists a cut-off function λ such that λ|K0
0 ≡ 1 and λ|S\K ≡ 0.
Therefore the pair (v0, v0∗) which is defined by v0∗ ≡ 0, v0 ≡ λΦ on K\K0, and v0 ≡ 0 on S\K is a competing function.
In summary, we are free to assume F 6=
∅
4. Let K be contained in the lid or the punched surface. Suppose that v1, v2∈ F coincide outside of K. That is, v1 ≡ v2 and v1∗≡ v∗2 respectively on each of their domains except on K. Then
D(v1) − D(v2) =
(
DK(v1) − DK(v2) whenever K ⊆ S\K0 DK(v1∗) − DK(v∗2) whenever K ⊆ K00 (hint: for the second case, apply Green’s theorem)Observation 4 (p.110). F = v0+
M
(S) in the following senses:First, for all v1, v2 ∈ F , v1 − v2 and v∗1 − v∗2 agree on the lock-ring, so they define an admissible function on S. Conversely, for all v ∈ F and w ∈
M
(S), (v + w, v∗ + w) lies in F . Therefore for a fixed member v0 ∈ F , there is a one-to-one correspondenceF ↔M
(S), v 7→ v − v0Second, define T := K0+ (S\K0) to be the direct sum of spaces, which may be identified with S\∂K0 sometimes. We identify v ∈ F with the corresponding function in C1(T ), which is defined by
p 7→
(
v(p) if p ∈ S\K0 v∗(p) if p ∈ K02
and satisfies DT(v) = D(v) < ∞. Thus v ∈
M
(T ).Finally, notice that (M(T )/∼, DT(·, ·) ) is a inner-product space over
R
, where the equivalence relation ∼ presents “v1 ∼ v2 ⇔ v1 − v2 = const.” In addition,M
(S), which is included inM
(T ) by restriction, is a subspace. Therefore we can handle the problem as a problem of orthogonal projection: find v//= w ∈M
(S) so that the norm of v⊥= u = v − w is minimized.Proposition 5 (p.110, due to Beppo Levi). Define d := inf{D(v) : v ∈ F }.
Then for all v1, v2 ∈F ,

Proof. As mentioned, we identify F as a subset of
M
(T ).Let λ ∈
R
. If λ 6= −1, then λvλ+11+v2 ∈F . Hence DT(λvλ+11+v2) = D(λvλ+11+v2) ≥ d, so DT(λv1+ v2) ≥ (λ + 1)2d. The last inequality remains valid when λ = −1.In summary, the quadratic function on λ
λ2(DT(v1) − d) + 2λ(DT(v1, v2) − d) + (DT(v2) − d) is always ≥ 0. Hence we have the discriminant
(DT(v1, v2) − d)2− (DT(v1) − d)(DT(v2) − d) ≤ 0 It follows that
0 ≤ DT(v1− v2)
= DT(v1) − 2DT(v1, v2) + DT(v2)
= (DT(v1) − d) + (DT(v2) − d) − 2(DT(v1, v2) − d)

By setting u = v = Pn or Qn, we have the orthogonality relations
DK(Pm, Qn) = 0 without exception DK(Pm, Pn) = DK(Qm, Qn) = 0 if m 6= n
DK(Pn) = DK(Qn) = πnR2n without exception

Also, by integrating under the polar coordinate, we have
Jz,K(Pm, Qn) = 0 without exception Jz,K(Pm, Pn) = Jz,K(Qm, Qn) = 0 if m 6= n
Jz,K(Pn) = Jz,K(Qn) = 2n+2π R2n+2 if n > 0 Jz,K(P0) = πR2

We prove by induction. If n = 0, i.e., K = K0, we take C = R220 by Lemma 6.
It suffices to prove that if our claim holds on Kn−1, then it holds on Kn. Let k ⊂⊂ Kn−1 ∩ Kn be a zn-disk with radius tRn, where 0 < t < 1. Let m be an upper bound for

Remark (p.114). If K is contained in the lid, we can compute u∗(p) := lim
v M(v∗), which existence and estimations are given in a similar way. In particular, if K is contained in the lock-ring, u = u∗+ Φ because Φ is harmonic.

Proposition 8 (p.114). u : K →
R
or u∗ : K →R
is harmonic (whenever any one of which is defined).Proof. For simplicity, we suppose that K ⊆ S\K0 and consider v ∈F0. A similar argument holds for K ⊂ K00 and v∗.
Recall that v ∈
M
(K) is harmonic. We definee
v ∈F by applying a smoothing process so thate
v coincides with v outside of K, but with v in k = Bz(0; r), where 0 < r < R. Let the smoothing be well chosen so that DK(e
v) → DK(v) as r → R−. By Lemma 1, DK(v) ≤ DK(v), and it takes “=” if and only if v is harmonic, namely v = v =e
v. Therefore for sufficiently large r, we have DK(e
v) ≤ DK(v).Notice that v =
e
v, so that DK(v) ≤ DK(e
v). Hence DK(v) ≤ DK(e
v) ≤ DK(v).By Fact 3.4, D(

D(v) − dAs a result, lim
v v(q) = u(q) uniformly on q ∈ k for any k ⊂⊂ K. Therefore u is also harmonic.
Lemma 9 (p.115). For all v ∈F0, we have
DK(v − v) ≤ 4(D(v) − d)
Jz,K(v − v) ≤ R2(D(v) − d)
Proof. First, take v1 = v2 = v in (3) to get the first estimation. Next, since (v − v) vanishes on ∂K, Jz,K(v − v) ≤ R42DK(v − v) ≤ R2(D(v) − d) by the inequality for w in Lemma 6.

In order to make u an ansatz, we need one more step:
Claim (p.114). u(p) := lim
v Mz,K(v) (or u∗, resp.) does not depend on z nor K.
Proof. Let z0 = x0+ iy0 be another coordinate, and K0 = Bz0(0; R0) be a z0-disk with center p0. Observe that it suffices to prove for K0⊂⊂ K and p = p0.
Note that
dz dz0
has an lower bound m1 > 0 on K0. Therefore

πR02 (D(v) − d)
Because v is harmonic on K0, we have Mz0,K0(v) = v(p). Hence u0(p) := lim
v Mz0,K0(v) = lim
v v(p) = u(p)
Proof of Theorem 2. We claim that (u, u∗) minimizes D(·).
First, observe that for B, a smaller z-disk concentric with K (the radius of B is smaller than the radius of K), lim
v DB(v − v) = 0 follows from Lemma 9, and lim
v DB(v − u) = 0 follows from the fact that the derivatives of v converge uniformly to those of u on B. Therefore lim
v DB(v − u) = 0 follows from the triangle inequality.
Next, associate each point p with a local coordinate z, a z-disk K = K(p), and a smaller z-disk B = B(p) such that p ∈ B(p) ⊂⊂ K(p). Since {B(p)}p∈S covers S, there is a countable subcover {B(pi)}∞i=1 (by Lindel¨of’s covering theorem).
Next, we construct Diudonn´e factors µi by {K(pi)} and {B(pi)} such that
P
iµi ≡ 1 with each µi ∈ C1(S, [0, 1]), and vanishes outside K(pi). (See p.74) The conclusions above lead to
