SUMMARY:Colloquium
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:TIANYI ZHENG\, UC SAN DIEGO\n\n\"RANDOM WALKS ON SELF-SIMILAR G
 ROUPS AND CONFORMAL DIMENSION\"\n\nConformal dimension was introduced in t
 he late 1980s by P. Pansu\; it\nis a natural invariant in the study of the
  geometry of hyperbolic\nspaces and their boundaries. In this talk we will
  discuss how\nconformal geometry can be used to study random walks on iter
 ated\nmonodromy groups\, in particular\, random walk entropy bounds when t
 he\nlimit set has Ahlfors-regular conformal dimension strictly less than\n
 2. Based on joint work with N. Matte Bon and V. Nekrashevych.\n\nMC 5501
