We are interested in the Guivarc'h inequality for admissible random walks on finitely generated relatively hyperbolic groups, endowed with a word metric. We show that for random walks with finite super-exponential moment, if this inequality…
We develop the theory of Patterson-Sullivan measures on the boundary of a locally compact hyperbolic group, associating to certain left invariant metrics on the group measures on the boundary. We later prove that for second countable,…
We describe the kernel of the canonical map from the Floyd boundary of a relatively hyperbolic group to its Bowditch boundary. Using our methods we then prove that a finitely generated group $H$ admitting a quasi-isometric map $\phi$ into a…
Suppose a finitely generated group $G$ is hyperbolic relative to $\mathcal P$ a set of proper finitely generated subgroups of $G$. Established results in the literature imply that a "visual" metric on $\partial (G,\mathcal P)$ is "linearly…
Suppose that a group $G$ acts non-elementarily on a hyperbolic space $S$ and does not fix any point of $\partial S$. A subgroup $H\le G$ is said to be geometrically dense in $G$ if the limit sets of $H$ and $G$ coincide and $H$ does not fix…
Suppose G is a hyperbolic group whose boundary has topological dimension k. If the boundary is quasisymmetrically homeomorphic to an Ahlfors k-regular metric space, then, modulo a finite normal subgroup, G is isomorphic to a uniform lattice…
We study the structure of invariant measures for continuous automorphisms of compact metrizable abelian groups satisfying the descending chain condition. We show that the finitely supported invariant measures are weak-* dense in the space…
We show that for every non-elementary hyperbolic group the Bowen-Margulis current associated with a strongly hyperbolic metric forms a unique group-invariant Radon measure class of maximal Hausdorff dimension on the boundary square.…
We study properties of "hyperbolic directions" in groups acting cocompactly on properly convex domains in real projective space, from three different perspectives simultaneously: the (coarse) metric geometry of the Hilbert metric, the…
We construct Patterson-Sullivan measure and a natural metric on the unit space of a hyperbolic groupoid. In particular, this gives a new approach to defining SRB measures on Smale spaces using Gromov hyperbolic graphs.
Given a measure on the Thurston boundary of Teichmueller space, one can pick a geodesic ray joining some basepoint to a randomly chosen point on the boundary. Different choices of measures may yield typical geodesics with different…
We consider the case of hyperbolic basic sets $\Lambda$ of saddle type for holomorphic maps $f: \mathbb P^2\mathbb C \to \mathbb P^2\mathbb C$. We study equilibrium measures $\mu_\phi$ associated to a class of H\"older potentials $\phi$ on…
A continuous equivariant map from the Floyd boundary of a relatively hyperbolic group (RHG for short) to its Bowditch boundary is constructed. Such a map is unique unless the group is two-ended. In order to optimize the proof and the usage…
We give a group cohomological description of the \v{C}ech cohomology of the Bowditch boundary of a relatively hyperbolic group pair, generalizing a result of Bestvina-Mess about hyperbolic groups. In case of a relatively hyperbolic…
Partially motivated by the study of I. Binder, N. Makarov, and S. Smirnov [BMS03] on dimension spectra of polynomial Cantor sets, we initiate the investigation on some general harmonic measures, inspired by Sullivan's dictionary, for…
Let $\widetilde{X}$ be a locally finite complete Gromov hyperbolic metric graph with the geometric boundary consisting of infinitely many points. Suppose that there is a discrete subgroup of the isometry group $Iso(\widetilde{X})$ acting…
We generalize the notion of cusp excursion of geodesic rays by introducing for any $k \geq 1$ the $k^{th}$ excursion in the cusps of a hyperbolic $N$-manifold of finite volume. We show that on one hand, this excursion is at most linear for…
The fundamental inequality of Guivarc'h relates the entropy and the drift of random walks on groups. It is strict if and only if the random walk does not behave like the uniform measure on balls. We prove that, in any nonelementary…
In a closed fibered hyperbolic 3-manifold M, the inclusion of a fiber S, with S and M lifted to the universal covers gives an exponentially distorted embedding of the hyperbolic plane into hyperbolic 3-space. Nevertheless, Cannon and…
We consider random walks $\lambda$-biased towards the root on a Galton-Watson tree, whose offspring distribution $(p_k)_{k\geq 1}$ is non-degenerate and has finite mean $m>1$. In the transient regime $0<\lambda<m$, the loop-erased…
