The slope gap distribution of a translation surface is a measure of how random the directions of the saddle connections on the surface are. It is known that Veech surfaces, a highly symmetric type of translation surface, have gap…
We compute the gap distribution of directions of saddle connections for two classes of translation surfaces. One class will be the translation surfaces arising from gluing two identical tori along a slit. These yield the first explicit…
Let $\Gamma$ be a lattice in $G=\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$. We give an effective equidistribution result with precise error terms for expanding translates of pieces of horospherical orbits in $\Gamma\backslash G$. Our method of proof relies…
In this paper we review the theory of slope gap distributions of translation surfaces and summarize the state-of-the-art for calculating slope gap distributions of Veech surfaces. We then derive the slope gap distribution of a particular…
In this paper we study spherical equidistribution on the space of (translates of) adelic lattices, which we apply to understand the fine-scale statistics of the directions in the set of shifted primitive lattice points. We also apply our…
We explicitly compute the limiting gap distribution for slopes of saddle connections on the flat surface associated to the regular octagon with opposite sides identified. This is the first such computation where the Veech group of the…
Let $d \geq 2$, and let $\Gamma \subset PSL(2, \mathbb{R})^d$ be an irreducible, cocompact lattice. We prove a sharp estimate up to a logarithmic factor on the rate of equidistribution of coordinate horocycle flows on $\Gamma \backslash…
We generalize classical results on the gap distribution (and other fine-scale statistics) for the one-dimensional Farey sequence to arbitrary dimension. This is achieved by exploiting the equidistribution of horospheres in the space of…
We give an explicit formula for the limiting gap distribution of slopes of saddle connections on the golden L, or any translation surface in its SL(2, R)-orbit, in particular the double pentagon. This is the first explicit computation of…
We give a rate of equidistribution of lifts of horocycles from the space $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb Z)\backslash \mathrm{SL}(2, \mathbb R)$ to the space $\mathrm{ASL}(2,\mathbb Z)\backslash \mathrm{ASL}(2,\mathbb R)$, making effective a theorem…
Let $\Gamma < G$ be an arithmetic lattice in a noncompact connected semisimple real algebraic group. For many such $G$ of rank at most $2$, in particular $G = \operatorname{SL}_3(\mathbb R)$, we prove effective equidistribution of large…
We prove effective equidistribution theorems, with polynomial error rate, for orbits of the unipotent subgroups of $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb R)$ in arithmetic quotients of $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb C)$ and $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb…
We consider a square expanding with constant speed seen from an observer moving away with constant acceleration and study the distribution of angles between rays from the observer towards the lattice points in the square. We prove the…
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…
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.…
A "shear" is a unipotent translate of a cuspidal geodesic ray in the quotient of the hyperbolic plane by a non-uniform discrete subgroup of PSL(2,R), possibly of infinite co-volume. We prove the regularized equidistribution of shears under…
Taylor dispersion in periodic but highly corrugated channels is studied. Exact analytical expressions for the long-time diffusion constant and drift along the channel are derived to next-to-leading order in the limit of small channel…
In this paper, we study the distribution of renormalized gaps between slopes of saddle connections on translation surfaces. Specifically, we describe a procedure for finding the "winning holonomy vectors" as defined by…
In this paper we develope a quantitative non-divergence theorem for translates of horospherical orbits, using the technique of Margulis' inequality as developed by Eskin-Margulis-Mozes and Eskin-Margulis. As we use the Margulis' inequality,…
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…
