We prove a positive combinatorial formula for the equivariant class of an orbit closure in the space of representations of an arbitrary quiver of type $A$. Our formula expresses this class as a sum of products of Schubert polynomials…
We apply a method inspired by Ratner's work on quantitative mixing for the geodesic flow (Ergod. Theory Dyn. Syst., 1987) and developed by Burger (Duke Math. J., 1990) to study ergodic integrals for horocycle flows. We derive an explicit…
Let W be an affine PI algebra over a field of characteristic zero graded by a finite group G. We show that there exist $\alpha_{1},\alpha_{2}\in\mathbb{R}, \beta\in\frac{1}{2}\mathbb{Z}$, and $l\in\mathbb{N}$ such that…
The asymptotic efficiency of the spatial sign covariance matrix (SSCM) relative to affine equivariant estimates of scatter is studied in detail. In particular, the SSCM is shown to be asymptoticaly inadmissible, i.e. the asymptotic…
We study the distribution of orbits of a lattice $\Gamma\leq\text{SL}(3,\mathbb R)$ in the moduli space $X_{2,3}$ of covolume one rank-two discrete subgroups in $\mathbb R^3$. Each orbit is dense, and our main result is the limiting…
The main result of this paper is an effective count for Apollonian circle packings that are either bounded or contain two parallel lines. We obtain this by proving an effective equidistribution of closed horospheres in the unit tangent…
Hooley proved that if $f\in \Bbb Z [X]$ is irreducible of degree $\ge 2$, then the fractions $\{ r/n\}$, $0<r<n$ with $f(r)\equiv 0\pmod n$, are uniformly distributed in $(0,1)$. In this paper we study such problems for reducible…
We study asymptotic distribution of zeros of random holomorphic sections of high powers of positive line bundles defined over projective homogenous manifolds. We work with a wide class of distributions that includes real and complex…
Unipotent flows are well-behaved dynamical systems. In particular, Marina Ratner has shown that the closure of every orbit for such a flow is of a nice algebraic (or geometric) form. After presenting some consequences of this important…
In this paper we prove an Ax-Schanuel type result for the exponential functions for general linear groups over $\mathbb{C}$. We prove the result first for the group of upper triangular matrices and then for the group $GL_n$ of all $n\times…
Let $\Gamma$ be a non-uniform lattice in $\operatorname{PSL}(2,\mathbb R)$. In this note, we show that there exists a constant $\gamma_0>0$ such that for any $0<\gamma<\gamma_0$, any one-parametrer unipotent subgroup $\{u(t)\}_{t\in\mathbb…
We study the action of a lattice in the group SL(2,R) on the plane. We obtain a formula which simultaneously describes visits of an orbit to either a fixed ball, or an expanding or contracting family of annuli. We also discuss the…
Let $G$ be a large group acting on a biregular tree $T$ and $\Gamma \leq G$ a geometrically finite lattice. In an earlier work, the authors classified orbit closures of the action of the horospherical subgroups on $G/\Gamma$. In this…
For a rotation by an irrational $\alpha$ on the circle and a BV function $\varphi$, we study the variance of the ergodic sums $S_L \varphi(x) := \sum_{j=0}^{L -1} \, \varphi(x + j\alpha)$. When $\alpha$ is not of constant type, we construct…
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 we show that this set is dense in the range of the linear map subject to certain algebraic conditions…
Let G be a connected semisimple Lie group with finite center and without compact factors, P a minimal parabolic subgroup of G, and \Gamma a lattice in G. We prove that every \Gamma-orbits in the Furstenberg boundary G/P is equidistributed…
Given a lattice \Gamma in a locally compact group G and a closed subgroup H of G, one has a natural action of \Gamma on the homogeneous space V=H\G. For an increasing family of finite subsets {\Gamma_T: T>0}, a dense orbit v\Gamma, v\in V,…
We study asymptotic relations connecting unipotent averages of $Sp(2g,\mathbb{Z})$ automorphic forms to their integrals over the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties. We obtain reformulations of the Riemann hypothesis as…
We characterize the universal covering of connected analytic pseudo-Riemannian manifolds which admit a non-trivial and isometric action of the simple Lie group $SL(3,\mathbb{R})$ with a dense orbit preserving a finite volume. If such…
We prove an equidistribution result for Hecke operators acting on the basic stratum of certain Shimura varieties. We relate the rate of convergence to the bounds from the Ramanujan conjecture of certain cuspidal automorphic representations…
