We study quotients of the Toeplitz C∗-algebra of a random walk, similar to those studied by the author and Markiewicz for finite stochastic matrices. We introduce a new Cuntz-type quotient C∗-algebra for random walks that have convergent ratios of transition probabilities. These C∗-algebras give rise to new notions of ratio limit space and boundary for such random walks, which are computed by appealing to a companion paper by Woess. Our combined results are leveraged to identify a unique symmetry-equivariant quotient C∗-algebra for any symmetric random walk on a hyperbolic group, shedding light on a question of Viselter on C∗-algebras of subproduct systems.
