Abstract

In this paper, we establish the theory of pp-modulus of a family of infinite paths on an infinite-rooted tree and then explore its interpretation and properties. One key result is the formulation of pp-modulus on the infinite tree as a limit of pp-modulus on truncated trees, with a formula given in terms of a series. Analogous to the existing theory for finite graphs, the 11-modulus of a family of descending paths in an infinite tree is related to the minimum cut problem, the 22-modulus is related to effective resistance, and the \infty-modulus is related to the length of shortest paths. Another key result is the existence of a critical pp-value for radially symmetric infinite binary trees, which assigns a kind of dimension to the boundaries
