Abstract
In this paper we show that groups for which the probability of return of a random walk is bounded below by $K_1 exp(-K_2n^c)$ have no non-constant harmonic functions with gradient in $\ell^p$. The proof relies on results from $\ell^p$-cohomology, a form of radial isoperimetry, transport patterns and revisiting some results of F{\o}lner.
