For continuous subharmonic function u on the unit disk, let Hr​ be the Poisson integral of its values on ∣z∣=r, evaluated inside that disk. Harmonic comparison gives Hs​≥Hr​≥u for ∣z∣<r<s<1. The Harnack inequality for harmonic functions makes their limit either finite and harmonic everywhere or everywhere infinite. In the finite case every harmonic majorant dominates every Hr​, so their limit is the least harmonic majorant. The supremum must restrict r>∣z∣; the Poisson expression evaluated outside its circle does not have this interpretation.
