Given a subset of Euclidean space, we may ask about the space of harmonic functions vanishing on that particular set. In two dimensions, it is easy to see that this space is either trivial or infinite dimensional. Surprisingly, this question becomes drastically different in three dimensions!  We will construct a family of cones on which precisely two linearly independent harmonic functions can vanish.
