We introduce a ``geometric'' method to bound periods of automorphic forms. The key features of this method are the use of equidistribution results in place of mean value theorems, and the systematic use of mixing and the spectral gap.…

We prove bounds for twisted ergodic averages for horocycle flows of hyperbolic surfaces, both in the compact and in the non-compact finite area case. From these bounds we derive effective equidistribution results for horocycle maps. As an…

We study equidistribution of certain subsets of periodic orbits for subshifts of finite type. Our results solely rely on the growth of these subsets. As a consequence, effective equidistribution results are obtained for both hyperbolic…

We prove that a generic area-preserving diffeomorphism of a compact surface with non-empty boundary has an equidistributed set of periodic orbits. This implies that such a diffeomorphism has a dense set of periodic points, although we also…

This paper introduces an abstract spectral approach to prove effective equidistribution of expanding horospheres in hyperbolic manifolds. The method, which is motivated by the approach to counting developed by (Lax-Phillips 1982), produces…

We prove asymptotic equidistribution results for pieces of large closed horospheres in cofinite hyperbolic manifolds of arbitrary dimension. This extends earlier results by Hejhal and Str\"ombergsson in dimension 2. Our proofs use spectral…

We derive a uniform approximation for semiclassical contributions of periodic orbits to the spectral density which is valid for generic period-quadrupling bifurcations in systems with a mixed phase space. These bifurcations involve three…

We present a general method for obtaining the spectra of large graphs with short cycles using ideas from statistical mechanics of disordered systems. This approach leads to an algorithm that determines the spectra of graphs up to a high…

Consider $G=\SL_{ d }(\mathbb R)$ and $ \Gamma=\SL_{ d }(\mathbb Z)$. It was recently shown by the second-named author \cite{s} that for some diagonal subgroups $\{g_t\}\subset G$ and unipotent subgroups $U\subset G$, $g_t$-trajectories of…

A coupling method and an analytic one allow us to prove new lower bounds for the spectral gap of reversible diffusions on compact manifolds. Those bounds are based on the a notion of curvature of the diffusion, like the coarse Ricci…

We consider the oscillatory integrals with parameter-dependent phases. We decompose the integrals into a leading term and a remainder term. Instead of the pointwise estimate, we use some $L^p$-estimate for the remainder term and get various…

Let X be a symmetric space of noncompact type and \Gamma a lattice in the isometry group of X. We study the distribution of orbits of \Gamma acting on the symmetric space X and its geometric boundary X(\infty). More precisely, for any y in…

We study equidistribution properties of nil-orbits $(b^nx)_{n\in\N}$ when the parameter $n$ is restricted to the range of some sparse sequence that is not necessarily polynomial. For example, we show that if $X=G/\Gamma$ is a nilmanifold,…
