We show that for any countable group $ G $ equipped with a probability measure $ \mu $, there exists a randomized stopping time $ \tau $ such that $ (G, \mu _{\tau} )$ admits a strictly larger space of bounded harmonic functions than $…

We consider a non-elementary group action $G \curvearrowright X$ of a locally compact second countable group $G$ on a possibly exotic non-discrete affine building $X$ of type $\tilde{A}_2$. We prove that if $\mu$ is an admissible symmetric…

We consider group actions on compact median algebras. We show that, given a generating probability measure $\mu$ on the acting group and under suitable conditions on the median algebra, it could be realized in a unique way as a…

In this paper we introduce for a group $G$ the notion of ultralimit of measure class preserving actions of it, and show that its Furstenberg-Poisson boundaries can be obtained as an ultralimit of actions on itself, when equipped with…

Let $G$ be a discrete group, $\mu$ a measure on $G$ and $X$ a proper CAT(0) space. We show that if $G$ acts non-elementarily with a rank one element on $X$, then the pushforward $\{Z_n o \}_n$ to $X$ of the random walk generated by $\mu$…

Let $\Gamma$ be a dense countable subgroup of a locally compact continuous group $G$. Take a probability measure $\mu$ on $\Gamma$. There are two natural spaces of harmonic functions: the space of $\mu$-harmonic functions on the countable…

Given a probability measure on a finitely generated group, its Martin boundary is a way to compactify the group using the Green function of the corresponding random walk. It is known from the work of W. Woess that when a finitely supported…

Let $G$ be a real linear semisimple algebraic group without compact factors and $\Gamma$ a Zariski dense subgroup of $G$. In this paper, we use a probabilistic counting in order to study the asymptotic properties of $\Gamma$ acting on the…

Let G be a countable group which acts by isometries on a separable, but not necessarily proper, Gromov hyperbolic space X. We say the action of G is weakly hyperbolic if G contains two independent hyperbolic isometries. We show that a…

A classical construction associates to a transient random walk on a discrete group $\Gamma$ a compact $\Gamma$-space $\partial_M \Gamma$ known as the Martin boundary. The resulting crossed product $C^*$-algebra $C(\partial_M \Gamma)…

We consider symmetric random walks on discrete, Zariski-dense subgroups $\Gamma$ of a semisimple Lie group $G$ with Property (T). We prove that if $\Gamma$ has infinite covolume, then the associated hitting measure on the Furstenberg…

Let $G$ be a countable group and $\mu$ a probability measure on $G$. We build a new framework to compute asymptotic quantities associated with the $\mu$-random walk on $G$, using methods from harmonic analysis on groups and Banach space…

We consider a finitely generated torsion free Kleinian group $H$ and a random walk on $H$ with respect to a symmetric nondegenerate probability measure $\mu$ with finite support. When $H$ is geometrically infinite without parabolics or when…

We give a sufficient condition for a countable group $G$ to possess a probability measure $\mu$ that admits a non-trivial $\mu$-boundary modeled in the space $\mathrm{Sub}_{\mathrm{am}}(G)$ of amenable subgroups of $G$. In particular, for…

We study random walks on the lampshuffler group $\mathrm{FSym}(H)\rtimes H$, where $H$ is a finitely generated group and $\mathrm{FSym}(H)$ is the group of finitary permutations of $H$. We show that for any step distribution $\mu$ with a…

Given a free unitary quantum group $G=A_u(F)$, with $F$ not a unitary $2$-by-$2$ matrix, we show that the Martin boundary of the dual of $G$ with respect to any $G$-$\hat G$-invariant, irreducible, finite range quantum random walk coincides…

Given a finitely generated group, the well-known Stability Problem asks whether the non-triviality of the Poisson-Furstenberg boundary (which is equivalent to the existence of non-constant bounded harmonic functions) depends on the choice…

Given a discrete quantum group $H$ with a finite normal quantum subgroup $G$, we show that any positive, possibly unbounded, harmonic function on $H$ with respect to an irreducible invariant random walk is $G$-invariant. This implies that,…

We show that the Poisson boundary of random walks of finite entropy on Zariski-dense discrete subgroups of semisimple Lie groups equals the Furstenberg boundary of the corresponding symmetric spaces equipped with the hitting measure,…

We consider a natural class of long range random walks on torsion free nilpotent groups and develop limit theorems for these walks. Given the original discrete group $\Gamma$ and a random walk $(S_n)_ {n\ge1}$ driven by a certain type of…
