It is shown that, if h and k are harmonic in ℝ 2 and there exists a positive constant c so that| h + − k + | ⩽ cin ℝ 2 , where h + = max { h , 0}, then it need not follow that h ‐ k is identically a constant. The necessary counterexample is obtained by applying Arakelyan's theorem on approximation by an entire function in certain regions in ℝ 2 .
