Minimal growth harmonic functions on lamplighter groups
  We study the minimal possible growth of harmonic functions on lamplighters. We find that $(\mathbb{Z}/2)\wr \mathbb{Z}$ has no sublinear harmonic functions, $(\mathbb{Z}/2)\wr \mathbb{Z}^2$ has no sublogarithmic harmonic functions, and neither has the repeated wreath product $(\dotsb(\mathbb{Z}/2\wr\mathbb{Z}^2)\wr\mathbb{Z}^2)\wr\dotsb\wr\mathbb{Z}^2$. These results have implications on attempts to quantify the Derriennic-Kaimanovich-Vershik theorem.
