Dimensional properties of the harmonic measure for a random walk on a hyperbolic group
Résumé
This paper deals with random walks on isometry groups of Gromov hyperbolic spaces, and more precisely with the dimension of the harmonic measure $\nu$ associated with such a random walk. We first establish a link of the form $\dim \nu \leq h/l$ between the dimension of the harmonic measure, the asymptotic entropy $h$ of the random walk and its rate of escape $l$. Then we use this inequality to show that the dimension of this measure can be made arbitrarily small and deduce a result on the type of the harmonic measure.
