Abstract:
Let G be a countable group acting by isometries on a metric space (M,d), and let μ denote a probability measure on G. The μ-random walk on M is the random process defined by Zn=Xn…X1o,
where o∈M is a fixed base point, and Xi are independent μ-distributed random variables. Studying statistical properties of the displacement sequence Dn:=d(Zn,o) has been a topic of current research. In this talk, which is based on a joint work with Amin Bahmanian, Behrang Forghani, and Ilya Gekhtman, I will discuss a central limit theorem for Dn in the case that M is the horospherical product of Gromov hyperbolic spaces.
