Random walks on cocompact Fuchsian and Kleinian groups

The question of the singularity at infinity of the hitting measure of random walks has a long history, originating from the work of Furstenberg in the 1960s. In 2011, Kaimanovich and Le Prince conjectured that the hitting measure of any finitely supported random walk on a discrete subgroup $\Gamma$ of $\mathrm{SL}_N(\mathbb R)$ is singular at infinity with respect to the Lebesgue measure. Using algebraic and geometric convergence and hyperbolic Dehn filling, we prove the singularity conjecture for certain measures on ``most'' cocompact Fuchsian and Kleinian groups.
