Quasisymmetric uniformization and heat kernel estimates

We show that the circle packing embedding in ${\mathbb{R}}^2$ of a one-ended, planar triangulation with polynomial growth is quasisymmetric if and only if the simple random walk on the graph satisfies sub-Gaussian heat kernel estimate with spectral dimension two. Our main results provide a new family of graphs and fractals that satisfy sub-Gaussian estimates and Harnack inequalities.
