    ABSTRACT:

    We prove the existence of an automorphism-invariant coupling for the
    wired and the free uniform spanning forests on connected graphs with
    residually amenable automorphism groups.

     

    BIO:

    Lewis Bowen obtained a PhD in May 2002 at the University of Texas in
    Austin. My thesis advisor was Charles Radin. My thesis was on a
    probabilistic model of sphere packings in hyperbolic space and a proof
    of the completely saturated conjecture. I have held a VIGRE postdoctoral
    position at the University of California at Davis since July 2002.
