Fix and choose a boundary neighbourhood of on which . The positive continuous barrier has a positive minimum on the compact set . Choosing large enough makeson all of . The left function is subharmonic and belongs to the Perron family; the right function is superharmonic and dominates every family member by part (ii). ThereforeAs , continuity gives . Letting proves . Such a is a barrier for the Dirichlet problem, and is a regular boundary point.
