Random walks on Diestel-Leader graphs

Abstract

We investigate various features of a quite new family of graphs, introduced as a possible example of vertex-transitive graph not roughly isometric with a Cayley graph of some finitely generated group. We exhibit a natural compactification and study a large class of random walks, proving theorems concerning almost sure convergence to the boundary, a strong law of large numbers and a central limit theorem. The asymptotic type of the n-step transition probabilities of the simple random walk is determined.
