Abstract

We prove that the effective resistances of spherically symmetric random trees dominate in mean the effective resistances of random trees corresponding branching processes in varying environments and having the same growth law of spherically symmetric trees. We conjecture that the statement does not necessarily hold true in the case of stochastic domination and give an idea of constructing a counterexample.
