DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Justin Salez\nhosted by M. Beiglböck\, N. Berestycki\
 , L. Erdös\, J. Maas\, F. Toninelli\nAbstract: We prove that bounded-degr
 ee expanders with non-negative Ollivier-Ricci curvature do not exist\, the
 reby solving a long-standing open problem suggested by Naor and Milman and
  publicized by Ollivier (2010). In fact\, this remains true even if we all
 ow for a vanishing proportion of large degrees\, large eigenvalues\, and n
 egatively-curved edges. To establish this\, we work directly at the level 
 of Benjamini-Schramm limits\, and exploit the entropic characterization of
  the Liouville property on stationary random graphs to show that non-negat
 ive curvature and spectral expansion are incompatible "at infinity". We th
 en transfer this result to finite graphs via local weak convergence. The s
 ame approach applies to the Bakry-Émery curvature condition CD(0\, ∞)\,
  thereby settling a recent conjecture of Cushing\, Liu and Peyerimhoff (20
 19).
