Random Walks in I.I.D. Random Environment on Cayley Trees

Abstract : We consider the random walk in an i.i.d. random environment on the infinite d-regular tree for d ≥ 3. We consider the tree as a Cayley graph of free product of finitely many copies of ℤ and ℤ2 and define the i.i.d. environment as invariant under the action of this group. Under a mild non-degeneracy assumption we show that the walk is always transient.
