In this paper we investigate the distribution of the set of values of a linear map at integer points on a quadratic surface. In particular, it is shown that subject to certain algebraic conditions, this set is equidistributed. This can be…
A theorem of Leibman asserts that a polynomial orbit $(g(1),g(2),g(3),\ldots)$ on a nilmanifold $G/\Gamma$ is always equidistributed in a union of closed sub-nilmanifolds of $G/\Gamma$. In this paper we give a quantitative version of…

We study Kakutani equivalence in the class of unipotent flows acting on finite volume quotients of semisimple Lie groups. For every such flow we compute the Kakutani invariant of M. Ratner, the value of which being explicitly given by the…
We prove an effective equidistribution theorem for semisimple closed orbits on compact adelic quotients. The obtained error depends polynomially on the minimal complexity of intermediate orbits and the complexity of the ambient space. The…
For any non-uniform lattice $\Gamma $ in $SL(2,R)$, we describe the limit distribution of orthogonal translates of a divergent geodesic in $\Gamma \backslash SL(2,R)$. As an application, for a quadratic form $Q$ of signature $(2,1)$, a…
Let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group and $\Gamma$ a lattice in $G$. We generalize a method of Burger to prove precise effective equidistribution results for translates of pieces of horospheres in the homogeneous space $\Gamma\backslash G$.
Let G=SL(n,R) with n>5. We construct examples of lattices Gamma of G, subgroup A of the diagonal group and points x in G/Gamma such that the closure of the orbit Ax is not homogeneous but does not factors through the action of a…
Let $G$ be a connected nilpotent Lie group. Given probability-preserving $G$-actions $(X_i,\Sigma_i,\mu_i,u_i)$, $i=0,1,...,k$, and also polynomial maps $\phi_i:\mathbb{R}\to G$, $i=1,...,k$, we consider the trajectory of a joining…
We study orbital integrals and invariant eigendistributions for the symmetric pair (g,h)=(gl(4,R),gl(2,R)*gl(2,R)). Let q=g/h and let N be the set of nilpotents of q. We first obtain an asymptotic behavior of orbital integrals around…
We prove results towards the equidistribution of certain families of periodic torus orbits on homogeneous spaces, with particular focus on the case of the diagonal torus acting on quotients of $\PGL_n(\R)$. After attaching to each periodic…
We provide a general framework for proving asymptotic equidistribution, convexity, and log concavity of coefficients of generating functions on arithmetic progressions. Our central tool is a variant of Wright's Circle Method proved by two…
Let G:=SO(n,1)^\circ and \Gamma be a geometrically finite Zariski dense subgroup with critical exponent delta bigger than (n-1)/2. Under a spectral gap hypothesis on L^2(\Gamma \ G), which is always satisfied for delta>(n-1)/2 for n=2,3 and…

We record an alternative proof of a recent joint equidistribution result of Blomer and Michel, based on Ratner's topological rigidity theorem. This approach has the advantage of extending to non-uniform lattices.
We show that if $\Gamma$ is a co-compact arithmetic lattice in $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$ or $\Gamma=SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ then the horocycle orbit of every non-periodic point $x\in SL(2,\mathbb{R})/\Gamma$ equidistributes (with respect to Haar…
