The metric-entropy condition can be checked by volume estimates of balls. Whilst similar results have been proved previously, the approach of this article is more widely applicable. Indeed, as well as recovering known conclusions for scaling limits of some deterministic self-similar fractal graphs and Galton-Watson trees, we derive new ones for scaling limits of uniform spanning trees. The metric-entropy condition also implies convergence of Gaussian processes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-05-22T16:56:42.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60J55", "60J25", "60G15", "60K37", "28A80" ], "keywords": [ "local times", "resistance forms", "metric-entropy condition", "deterministic self-similar fractal graphs", "whilst similar results" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 52, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
