Abstract
We study the asymptotic distribution of norm ball averages along orbits of a lattice acting on the moduli space of pairs of orthogonal discrete subgroups of up to homothety. Our main result shows that, except for special -lattices in lying in hyperplanes tangent to the light cone, these measures converge to an explicit semi-invariant probability measure supported on the space of homothety classes of pairs of orthogonal lattices tangent to the light cone. Our main motivation is a conjecture of Sargent and Shapira, which is resolved as a special case of our general result.
