We establish the prime geodesic theorem for the modular surface with exponent $\frac{2}{3}+\varepsilon$, improving upon the long-standing exponent $\frac{25}{36}+\varepsilon$ of Soundararajan-Young (2013). This was previously known…
We reduce the exponent in the error term of the prime geodesic theorem for compact Riemann surfaces from $\frac{3}{4}$ to $\frac{7}{10}$ outside a set of finite logarithmic measure.
We study the distribution of closed geodesics for the modular surface. We improve the error term in the prime geodesic theorem, and obtain results on prime geodesics in very short intervals conditionally on the generalized Riemann…
Taking the Iwaniec explicit formula as a starting point, we give a short proof of a more precise $\frac{2}{3}$ bound for the exponent in the error term of the Gallagher-type prime geodesic theorem for the modular surface.
Let $\mathcal{M}_g$ be the moduli space of hyperbolic surfaces of genus $g$ endowed with the Weil-Petersson metric. In this paper, we show that for any $\epsilon>0$, as $g\to \infty$, for a generic surface in $\mathcal{M}_g$, the error term…
We establish the prime geodesic theorem for the Picard orbifold $\mathrm{PSL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z}[i]) \backslash \mathbb{H}^{3}$, wherein the error term shrinks proportionally to improvements in the subconvex exponent for quadratic Dirichlet…
Soundararajan and Young (2013) proposed a new approach to improve the error term of the prime geodesic theorem for the modular group and actually obtained the exponent 25/36 of the error term. In the present paper, we sharpen it to 9/13.
We address the prime geodesic theorem in arithmetic progressions, and resolve conjectures of Golovchanski\u{\i}-Smotrov (1999). In particular, we prove that the traces of closed geodesics on the modular surface do not equidistribute in the…
A prime geodesic theorem is proven for singular geodesics in quotients of SL(4). This is a case where regularity assumptions of previous papers fail. As a consequence, the analysis becomes much more involved. For applications in number…
We give a new proof of the best presently known error term in the prime geodesic theorem for compact Riemann surfaces, without the assumption of excluding a set of finite logarithmic measure. Stronger implications of the Gallagher-Koyama…
Let $\Gamma=PSL(2,Z[i])$ be the Picard group and $H^3$ be the three-dimensional hyperbolic space. We study the Prime Geodesic Theorem for the quotient $\Gamma \setminus H^3$, called the Picard manifold, obtaining an error term of size…
Through the Selberg zeta approach, we reduce the exponent in the error term of the prime geodesic theorem for cocompact Kleinian groups or Bianchi groups from Sarnak's $\frac{5}{3}$ to $\frac{3}{2}$. At the cost of excluding a set of finite…
We strengthen the recent result of Cherubini and Guerreiro on the square mean of the error term in the prime geodesic theorem for $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$. We also develop a short interval version of this result.
We use the main theorem of Boxer-Calegari-Gee-Pilloni (arXiv:1812.09269) to give explicit examples of modular abelian surfaces $A$ over $\mathbf{Q}$ without extra endomorhpisms such that $A$ has good reduction outside the primes 2, 3, 5,…
We prove upper bounds for the mean square of the remainder in the prime geodesic theorem, for every cofinite Fuchsian group, which improve on average on the best known pointwise bounds. The proof relies on the Selberg trace formula. For the…
We give two generalizations of the Clifford theorem to algebraic surfaces. As an application, we obtain some bounds for the number of moduli of surfaces of general type.
The prime geodesic theorem for regular geodesics in a higher rank locally symmetric space is proved. An application to class numbers is given. The proof relies on a Lefschetz formula that is based on work of Andreas Juhl.
We investigate the prime geodesic theorem with an error term dependent on the varying weight and its higher metaplectic coverings in the arithmetic setting, each admitting subconvex refinements despite the softness of our input. The former…
A prime geodesic theorem for singular geodesics in a locally symmetric space is proved. As an application, an asymptotic formula for units in number fields is given.
The Zagier $L$-series encode data of real quadratic fields. We study the average size of these $L$-series, and prove asymptotic expansions and omega results for the expansion. We then show how the error term in the asymptotic expansion can…
