The Strong Markov property at the first visit to gives the singleton equilibrium potential from the Green function
Let be an increasing exhaustion of by finite sets containing , and let be the Green function of a transient weighted graph stopped on leaving . Each has finite support. The Green identity and the Markov property give, for ,
By the monotone convergence theorem, the right side tends to zero as , while . Thus is an limit of finitely supported functions. Dividing by the positive number proves .

For the normalized Green function of a transient weighted graph, the Green identity is
Taking and using therefore gives
This is also the capacity of a finite set for a transient random walk .
