It is shown that if a planar graph admits no non-constant bounded harmonic functions then the trajectories of two independent simple random walks intersect almost surely.

For graphs with non-negative Ollivier curvature, we prove the Liouville property, i.e., every bounded harmonic function is constant. Moreover, we improve Ollivier's results on concentration of the measure under positive Ollivier curvature.

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…

Using an rotation of Yuan, we observe that the gradient graph of any semiconvex function is a Liouville manifold, that is, does not admit bounded harmonic functions. As a corollary, we find that any entire solution of the fourth order…

In 1999, Benjamini, Lyons, Peres, and Schramm introduced a notion of weighted-amenability for transitive graphs that is equivalent to the amenability of its automorphism group. For unimodular graphs this notion coincides with classical…

We present a new approach to the amenability of groupoids (both in the measure theoretical and the topological setups) based on using Markov operators. We introduce the notion of an invariant Markov operator on a groupoid and show that the…
