[Abstract-pdf] [Abstract-ps]

A sufficient condition for a cluster point of a C1-function on R2 to be an asymptotic value is given, based on a partitioning into regions of constant valence. We also obtain a sufficient condition for the cluster set of a planar harmonic function to have non-empty interior. An example is given of a planar harmonic function where the image of the critical set is not closed and such that the cluster set has non-empty interior and is a proper subset of the image.

Keywords: Planar harmonic functions, C1-function in R2, cluster set, asymptotic values.
