Branching Random Walks on relatively hyperbolic groups

From MaRDI portal





Abstract: Let Gamma be a non-elementary relatively hyperbolic group with a finite generating set. Consider a finitely supported admissible and symmetric probability measure mu on Gamma and a probability measure u on mathbbN with mean r. Let mathrmBRW(Gamma,u,mu) be the branching random walk on Gamma with offspring distribution u and base motion given by the random walk with step distribution mu. It is known that for 1<rleqR with R the radius of convergence for the Green function of the random walk, the population of mathrmBRW(Gamma,u,mu) survives forever, but eventually vacates every finite subset of Gamma. We prove that in this regime, the growth rate of the trace of the branching random walk is equal to the growth rate omegaGamma(r) of the Green function of the underlying random walk. We also prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the limit set Lambda(r), which is the random subset of the Bowditch boundary consisting of all accumulation points of the trace of mathrmBRW(Gamma,u,mu), is equal to a constant times omegaGamma(r).
