Abstract

In [BGLM] and [GLNP] it was conjectured that if HH is a simple Lie group of real rank at least 2, then the number of conjugacy classes of (arithmetic) lattices in HH of covolume at most xx is x(γ(H)+o(1))logx/loglogxx^{(\gamma(H)+o(1))\log x/\log\log x} where γ(H)\gamma(H) is an explicit constant computable from the (absolute) root system of HH. In [BLu] we disproved this conjecture. In this paper we prove that for most groups HH the conjecture is actually true if we restrict to counting only non-uniform lattices.
