Problem Statement

Let DR2 D \subset \mathbb {R} ^ {2} be a finite Lebesgue measure of a connected open set and u:DR u: D \rightarrow \mathbb {R} a harmonic function. Show that it is either a constant u u or for almost every pD p \in D f ^ {\prime} (t) = (\operatorname {grad} u) (f (t)),   f (0) = p has no initial value problem(differentiable everywhere) solution to f:[0,)D f:[0,\infty) \rightarrow D .
