Let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group of rank $1$ and $\Gamma$ be a torsion free discrete subgroup of $G$. We show that in $G/\Gamma$, given $\epsilon>0$, any trajectory of a unipotent flow remains in the set of points with injectivity radius…
The theorems of M. Ratner, describing the finite ergodic invariant measures and the orbit closures for unipotent flows on homogeneous spaces of Lie groups, are extended for actions of subgroups generated by unipotent elements. More…
We prove an avoidance principle for expanding translates of unipotent orbits for some semisimple homogeneous spaces. In addition, we prove a quantitative isolation result of closed orbits and give an upper bound on the number of closed…
Let $G=\SL(2,\R)\ltimes(\R^2)^{k}$, let $\Gamma$ be a congruence subgroup of $\SL(2,\Z)\ltimes(\Z^2)^{k}$, and let $u_{\R}=(u_x)_{x\in\R}$ be the one-parameter subgroup of $G$ given by $u_x=\left(\matr 1x01,0\right)$. We prove polynomially…
We study shrinking targets problems for discrete time flows on a homogenous space $\Gamma\backslash G$ with $G$ a semisimple group and $\Gamma$ an irreducible lattice. Our results apply to both diagonalizable and unipotent flows, and apply…
We prove logarithm laws and shrinking target properties for unipotent flows on the homogenous space $\Gamma\bs G$ with $G=\SL_2(\bbR)^{r_1}\times\SL_2(\bbC)^{r_2}$ and $\Gamma\subseteq G$ an irreducible non-uniform lattice. Our method…
Let $H < G$ both be noncompact connected semisimple real algebraic groups where the former is maximal proper and $\Gamma < G$ be a lattice. Building on the work of Gorodnik-Weiss, we refine their techniques and obtain effective results.…
We establish an analogue of Ratner's orbit closure theorem for any connected closed subgroup generated by unipotent elements in $\operatorname{SO}(d,1)$ acting on the space $\Gamma\backslash \operatorname{SO}(d,1)$, assuming that the…
The present paper establishes upper and lower bounds on the speed of approximation in a wide range of natural Diophantine approximation problems. The upper and lower bounds coincide in many cases, giving rise to optimal results in…
Let L be a Lie group and Lambda a lattice in L. Suppose G is a non-compact simple Lie group realized as a Lie subgroup of L, and the image of G on L/Lambda is dense. Let c be a diagonalizable element of G not contained in a compact…
We study time-changes of unipotent flows on finite volume quotients of semisimple linear groups, generalising previous work by Ratner on time-changes of horocycle flows. Any measurable isomorphism between time-changes of unipotent flows…
We prove a dichotomy regarding the behavior of one-parameter unipotent flows on quotients of semisimple lie groups under time change. We show that if $u^{(1)}_t$ acting on $\mathbf{G}_{1}/\Gamma_1$ is such a flow it satisfies exactly one of…
Let $G/\Gamma$ be the quotient of a semisimple Lie group by an arithmetic lattice. We show that for reductive subgroups $H$ of $G$ that is large enough, the orbits of $H$ on $G/\Gamma$ intersect nontrivially with a fixed compact set. As a…
Let $u_{X}^{t}$ be a unipotent flow on $X=SO(n,1)/\Gamma$, $u_{Y}^{t}$ be a unipotent flow on $Y=G/\Gamma^{\prime}$. Let $\tilde{u}_{X}^{t}$, $\tilde{u}_{Y}^{t}$ be time-changes of $u_{X}^{t}$, $u_{Y}^{t}$ respectively. We show the…

We say that a finite subset of the unit sphere in $\mathbf{R}^d$ is transitive if there is a group of isometries which acts transitively on it. We show that the width of any transitive set is bounded above by a constant times $(\log…
We investigate the distribution of orbits of a non-elementary discrete hyperbolic group acting on the n-dimensional hyperbolic space and its geometric boundary. In particular, we show that if the group $\Gamma$ admits a finite…
