The mother-group zero-entropy random-walk conjecture

Let dd be the degree of a mother group, and consider random walks whose step distribution is supported on a finite generating set. The mother-group zero-entropy conjecture. The mother group of degree dd has such a random walk with asymptotic entropy zero if and only if d=0,1,2d=0,1,2. The case d=1d=1 follows from the paper, while the assertion for all d2d\geq2 remains open. It predicts a phase transition in the existence of zero-asymptotic-entropy random walks on mother groups.
