چکیده

We prove results towards the equidistribution of certain families of periodic torus orbits on homogeneous spaces, with particular focus on the case of the diagonal torus acting on quotients of PGLn(R). After attaching to each periodic orbit an integral invariant (the discriminant) our results have the following flavour: certain standard conjectures about the distribution of such orbits hold up to exceptional sets of at most O(∆ε) orbits of discriminant ≤ ∆. The proof relies on the well-separatedness of periodic orbits together with measure rigidity for torus actions. We also give examples of sequences of periodic orbits of this action that fail to become equidistributed even in higher rank. We give an application of our results to sharpen a theorem of Minkowski on ideal classes in totally real number fields of cubic and higher degrees.

Weak Splittings of Quotients of Drinfeld and Heisenberg Doubles

We investigate the fine structure of the symplectic foliations of Poisson homogeneous spaces. Two general results are proved for weak splittings of surjective Poisson submersions from Heisenberg and Drinfeld doubles. The implications of these results are that the torus orbits of symplectic leaves of the quotients can be explicitly realized as Poisson–Dirac submanifolds of the torus orbits of th...

Distribution of Periodic Torus Orbits and Duke’s Theorem for Cubic Fields

We study periodic torus orbits on space of lattices. Using the action of the group of adelic points of the underlying tori, we define a natural equivalence relation on these orbits; for rank 3 lattices, we show that the equivalence classes become uniformly distributed. This is a cubic analogue of Duke’s theorem about the distribution of closed geodesics on the modular surface: suitably interpre...

Divergent Torus Orbits in Homogeneous Spaces of Qrank Two

Let G be a semisimple algebraic Qgroup. let. F be an arithmetic subgroup of G . and let, T be an E-split torus in G . We prove that if there is a divergent Tn-orbit in r \ G R , and Q-rank G < 2, t,hen dim T < Q-rankG. This provides a partial answer to a question of G . Tomanov and B. Weiss.
