Given a collection of independent events each of which has strictly positive probability, the probability that all of them occur is also strictly positive. The Lov\'asz local lemma (LLL) asserts that this remains true if the events are not…

We consider random walks on finitely or countably generated free semigroups, and identify their Poisson boundaries for classes of measures which fail to meet the classical entropy criteria. In particular, we introduce the notion of…
