AbstractModerate deviation principles (MDPs) for random walks on covering graphs with groups of polynomial volume growth are discussed in a geometric point of view. They deal with any intermediate spatial scalings between those of laws of large numbers and those of central limit theorems. The corresponding rate functions are given by quadratic forms determined by the Albanese metric associated with the given random walks. We apply MDPs to establish laws of the iterated logarithm on the covering graphs by characterizing the set of all limit points of the normalized random walks.

Abstract We consider the sequence of powers of a positive definite function on a discrete group. Taking inspiration from random walks on compact quantum groups, we give several examples of situations where a cut-off phenomenon occurs for this sequence, including free groups and infinite Coxeter groups. We also give examples of absence of cut-off using free groups again.

We consider general transformations of random walks on groups determined by Markov stopping times and prove that the asymptotic entropy (respectively, rate of escape) of the transformed random walks is equal to the asymptotic entropy (respectively, rate of escape) of the original random walk multiplied by the expectation of the corresponding stopping time. This is an analogue of the well-known Abramov formula from ergodic theory; its particular cases were established earlier by Kaimanovich [Differential entropy of the boundary of a random walk on a group. Uspekhi Mat. Nauk38(5(233)) (1983), 187–188] and Hartman et al [An Abramov formula for stationary spaces of discrete groups. Ergod. Th. & Dynam. Sys.34(3) (2014), 837–853].
