Nonexistence conjecture for superlinear elliptic inequalities on weighted graphs

From papers

Let (V,\b5)(V,\b5) be a weighted graph, let oVo\in V, and let σ>1\sigma>1. A nonnegative solution uu of the elliptic inequality

Δu+uσ0\Delta u+u^{\sigma}\leq 0

is a function on VV satisfying this inequality, where B(o,n)B(o,n) denotes the ball of radius nn centered at oo and μ(B(o,n))\mu(B(o,n)) its weighted volume. Nonexistence conjecture. If

n=1n2σ1μ(B(o,n))σ1=,\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{n^{2\sigma-1}}{\mu(B(o,n))^{\sigma-1}}=\infty,

then the only nonnegative solution to the elliptic inequality is identically zero. This would sharpen the stated nonexistence theorem by removing condition (p0)(p_0), whose necessity is not known.
