contents In this paper, we provide examples to show that for $1 \leq k \leq n/2$, solutions to $k$-Hessian equations $S_k(D^2u)=1$ in the exterior of a strictly convex domain need not be quasiconvex, when prescribing quadratic growth at infinity. Additionally, we give a new proof for the quasiconvexity of harmonic functions in such exterior domains that decay to zero at infinity.
