Abstract: We study a family of discrete-time random-walk models. The starting point is a fixed generalized transfer operator $R$ subject to a set of axioms, and a given endomorphism in a compact Hausdorff space $X$. Our setup includes a host of models from applied dynamical systems, and it leads to general path-space probability realizations of the initial transfer operator. The analytic data in our construction is a pair $left(h,lambdaight)$, where $h$ is an $R$-harmonic function on $X$, and $lambda$ is a given positive measure on $X$ subject to a certain invariance condition defined from $R$. With this we show that there are then discrete-time random-walk realizations in explicit path-space models; each associated to a probability measures $mathbbP$ on path-space, in such a way that the initial data allows for spectral characterization: The initial endomorphism in $X$ lifts to an automorphism in path-space with the probability measure $mathbbP$ quasi-invariant with respect to a shift automorphism. The latter takes the form of explicit multi-resolutions in $L^2$ of $mathbbP$ in the sense of Lax-Phillips scattering theory.
