in which i suggest an "N" instead of a "p" ..

while browsing the title/abstract of a preprint of cheη, pοnnusamy, and waηg, i read this excerpt ..

"In this paper, we investigate the properties of $p$-harmonic mappings in the unit disk $|z| \leq 1$. First, we discuss the convexity, the starlikeness and the region of variability of some classes of $p$-harmonic mappings."

.. and became excited:


new geometric results about $p$-harmonic mappings?
awesome! 

so i clicked on the PDF and read the first page ..

yeah, yeah, $p$-harmonic functions solve $\Delta^pf = 0$  ..
wait: why should $f$ be be $C^{2p}$-smooth?

and then i realised that i mistook a superscript for a subscript.  you see, these authors mean $p$ as an exponent for composition,
$$\Delta^pf \;=\; (\underbrace{\Delta \circ \cdots \circ \Delta}_\textrm{ $p$ times })f$$
whereas the $p$-Laplacian that i know and love from the literature is a nonlinear operator:
$$\Delta_pf \;:=\; \operatorname{div}[|\nabla f|^{p-2}\nabla f].$$

[sighs]
either i need more sleep or more coffee, today.
