Shearing in the space of adelic lattices

Dynamical Systems 2019-09-04 v1

Abstract

In this notes we show how a problem regarding continued fractions of rational numbers, lead to several phenomena in number theory and dynamics, and eventually to the problem of shearing of divergent diagonal orbits in the space of adelic lattices. Finding these ideas quite interesting, the first half of these notes is about explaining theses ideas, the intuition and motivation behind them, and the second contains the details and proofs.
