Random walks on trees and matchings.
Let N be a simply connected nilpotent Lie group and let be a semidirect product, acting on N by diagonal automorphisms. Let (Qₙ,Mₙ) be a sequence of i.i.d. random variables with values in S. Under natural conditions, including contractivity in the mean, there is a unique stationary measure ν on N for the Markov process Xₙ = MₙXn-1 + Qₙ. We prove that for an appropriate homogeneous norm on N there is χ₀ such that . In particular, this applies to classical Poisson kernels on symmetric spaces,...
Le résultat essentiel du travail est la définition du processus ralenti d’un processus de Ray en ses points de branchement, par un procédé qui transforme ceux-ci en points stables.
