The existence of nonconstant harmonic Dirichlet functions on a Cayley graph of a discrete group is equivalent to the nonvanishing of the first L2-cohomology of the given group. It was first proven by Cheeger and Gromov that such functions do not exists on the Cayley-graph of an amenable group. The result was extended using Foster's averaging formula to transitive amenable graphs by Medolla and Soardi. In this paper we extend this result further for amenable graphs which are transitive in the category of quasi-isometries. Such graphs are usually not quasi-isometric to transitive graphs. The extension includes nets of amenable unimodular Lie-groups and geometrically amenable homogeneous spaces.
