Abstract
We study the simple random walk on the Uniform Infinite Half-Plane Map, which is the local limit of critical Boltzmann planar maps with a large and simple boundary. We prove that the simple random walk is recurrent, and that the resistance between the root and the boundary of the hull of radius r is at least of order logr. This resistance bound is expected to be sharp, and is better than those following from previous proofs of recurrence for nonbounded-degree planar maps models. Our main tools are the self-duality of uniform planar maps, a classical lemma about duality of resistances and some peeling estimates. The proof shares some ideas with Russo–Seymour–Welsh theory in percolation.
