Problem

Modify the proof of the mean value formulas to show for n≥3n \geq 3 that u(0)=∫∂B(0,r)g dS+1n(n−2)α(n)∫B(0,r)(1∣x∣n−2−1rn−2)f dx,u(0) = \int_{\partial B(0,r)} g\, dS + \frac{1}{n(n-2)\alpha(n)} \int_{B(0,r)} \left(\frac{1}{|x|^{n-2}} - \frac{1}{r^{n-2}}\right) f\, dx, provided {−Δu=fin B0(0,r)u=gon ∂B(0,r).\begin{cases} -\Delta u = f & \text{in } B^0(0,r) \\ u = g & \text{on } \partial B(0,r). \end{cases}
