Harnack inequality on the unit disk ($\frac{1-|z|}{1+|z|}u(0)\le u(z)\le \frac{1+|z|}{1-|z|}u(0)$)

For a nonnegative harmonic function on the unit disc, the displayed inequalities are sharp. Apply the Poisson integral on the unit disk on radius $R>|z|$, bound its positive kernel between $(R-|z|)/(R+|z|)$ and its reciprocal, and use the mean value property for harmonic functions. Letting $R\uparrow 1$ proves the assertion. Positive Poisson kernels with one boundary pole give equality in the appropriate radial directions.

For a positive harmonic function on the unit disc, choose a global harmonic conjugate and apply the Carathéodory derivative bound for the right half-plane to $u+iv$. This gives $|\nabla u(0)|\le 2u(0)$ by the Cauchy-Riemann equations. A disk automorphism sending zero to $z$ has derivative modulus $1-|z{|}^2$, so the chain rule gives the displayed bound. Composing a boundary-pole Poisson kernel with a disk automorphism attains equality, proving the coefficient is optimal at every point.
