Abstract

We study in details the long-time asymptotic behavior of a relativistic diffusion taking values in the unitary tangent bundle of a curved Lorentzian manifold, namely a spatially flat and fast expanding Robertson-Walker space-time. We prove in particular that the Poisson boundary of the diffusion can be identified with the causal boundary of the underlying manifold.
