Central limit theorem and geodesic tracking on hyperbolic spaces and Teichmüller spaces (Q6076324)

Let \((X,d)\) either be a Gromov hyperbolic space or Teichmüller space of a finite-type hyperbolic surface. Fix a reference point \(o \in X\) and denote by \(G\) the isometry group of \(X\). For \(g \in G\) we define the translation length \(\tau(g) := \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{n} d(o,g^n o)\). Let \(\mu\) be a non-elementary discrete probability measure on \(G\) and denote by \(\omega = (\omega_n)_{n=1}^\infty\) the random walk generated by it. Theorem A of the paper states: If \(\mu\) has finite first moment then there exists a constant \(K < \infty\) such that \[ \limsup_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{\log n} |\tau(\omega_n) - d(o,\omega_n o)| < K \] for almost every \(\omega\). The paper goes on to prove several more theorems related to the central limit theorem and about geodesic tracking. To illustrate the latter, let me state Theorem D.(1): Assume that \(X\) is geodesic. If \(\mu\) has finite \(p\)-th moment for some \(p > 0\), then for almost every \(\omega\) there exists a quasi-geodesic \(\gamma\) such that \[ \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{n^{1/2p}} d(\omega_n o,\gamma) = 0\,. \]
