Answering a question of Benjamini & Schramm, we show that the Poisson boundary of any planar, uniquely absorbing (e.g. one-ended and transient) graph with bounded degrees can be realised geometrically as a circle, namely as the boundary of a tiling of a cylinder by squares. For this, we introduce a general criterion for identifying the Poisson boundary of a stochastic process that might have further applications.

The talk will be self-contained, assuming no prior knowledge of the mentioned terminology, and will contain many pictures.
