Hyperbolic lattice-point counting and modular symbols

Abstract

For a cocompact group \G\G of \slr\slr we fix a real non-zero harmonic 1-form α\alpha. We study the asymptotics of the hyperbolic lattice-counting problem for \G\G under restrictions imposed by the modular symbols \modsymγ\a\modsym{\gamma}{\a}. We prove that the normalized values of the modular symbols, when ordered according to this counting, have a Gaussian distribution.
