Proportionality conjecture for regular Cantor boundaries

About 4 years old · traced to

Let n=2n=2. Let Ω\Omega be a one-sided NTA domain, and let uu and vv be as above, with u/vu/v agreeing on B(z,r)∩∂ΩB(z,r)\cap\partial\Omega with a real-analytic function RR. Assume R=∣A∣R=|A| for a nonconstant holomorphic function AA on B(z,r)B(z,r). In addition, suppose that ∂Ω\partial\Omega is a regular Cantor set: there are a>1a>1, δ>0\delta>0, and CC such that for every k∈Z+k\in\mathbb Z_+, the a−ka^{-k}-neighborhood of ∂Ω\partial\Omega is a union V1∪⋯∪VmkV_1\cup\cdots\cup V_{m_k} with length⁡(Vi)≤Ca−k\operatorname{length}(V_i)\leq Ca^{-k} and mk≤Caδkm_k\leq Ca^{\delta k}. Proportionality conjecture. Then u=λvu=\lambda v for some constant λ\lambda. The claim expresses that a Cantor boundary cannot have the real-analytic alternative from the preceding conjecture; no proof or resolution is supplied here.
