Random walks with bounded first moment on finite-volume spaces
@inproceedings{Benard2021RandomWW, title={Random walks with bounded first moment on finite-volume spaces}, author={Timoth'ee B'enard and Nicolas de Saxc'e}, year={2021} }
Let G be a real Lie group, Λ ≤ G a lattice, and Ω = G/Λ. We study the equidistribution properties of the left random walk on Ω induced by a probability measure μ on G. It is assumed that μ has a finite first moment, and that the Zariski closure of the group generated by the support of μ in the adjoint representation is semisimple without compact factors. We show that for every starting point x ∈ Ω, the μ-walk with origin x has no escape of mass, and equidistributes in Cesàro averages toward…

Extending previous results by A. Eskin and G. Margulis, and answering their conjectures, we prove that a random walk on a finite volume homogeneous space is always recurrent as soon as the transition…
