Abstract

Let Γ be a countable group acting on a geodesic Gromov-hyperbolic metric space X and μ a probability measure on Γ whose support generates a non-elementary subsemigroup. Under the assumption that μ has a finite exponential moment, we establish large deviations results for the distance and the translation length of a random walk with driving measure μ. From our results, we deduce a special case of a conjecture regarding large deviations of spectral radii of random matrix products.
