Abstract Let G be a Lie group, let $\Gamma \subset G$ be a discrete subgroup, let $X=G/\Gamma $ and let f be an affine map from X to itself. We give conditions on a submanifold Z of X that guarantee that the set of points $x\in X$ with f-trajectories avoiding Z is hyperplane absolute winning (a property which implies full Hausdorff dimension and is stable under countable intersections). A similar result is proved for one-parameter actions on X. This has applications in constructing exceptional geodesics on locally symmetric spaces and in non-density of the set of values of certain functions at integer points.

Let $F$ be a nonquasi-unipotent one-parameter (cyclic) subgroup of a unimodular Lie group $G$, $\Gamma$ a discrete subgroup of $G$. We prove that for certain classes of subsets $Z$ of the homogeneous space $G/\Gamma$, the set of points in $G/\Gamma$ with $F$-orbits staying away from $Z$ has full Hausdorff dimension. From this we derive applications to geodesic flows on manifolds of constant negative curvature.

Let$g:M\rightarrow M$be a$C^{1+\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}}$-partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism preserving an ergodic normalized volume on$M$. We show that, if$f:M\rightarrow M$is a$C^{1+\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}}$-Anosov diffeomorphism such that the stable subspaces of$f$and$g$span the whole tangent space at some point on$M$, the set of points that equidistribute under$g$but have non-dense orbits under$f$has full Hausdorff dimension. The same result is also obtained when$M$is the torus and$f$is a toral endomorphism whose center-stable subspace does not contain the stable subspace of$g$at some point.

Recently, Einsiedler and the authors provided a bound in terms of escape of mass for the amount by which upper-semicontinuity for metric entropy fails for diagonal flows on homogeneous spaces $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}\setminus G$, where $G$ is any connected semisimple Lie group of real rank one with finite center, and $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}$ is any non-uniform lattice in $G$. We show that this bound is sharp, and apply the methods used to establish bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points that diverge on average.

We generalize the notion of Schmidt games to the setting of the general Caratheódory construction. The winning sets for such generalized Schmidt games usually have large corresponding Caratheódory dimensions (e.g., Hausdorff dimension and topological entropy). As an application, we show that for every $C^{1+\unicode[STIX]{x1D703}}$-partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism $f:M\rightarrow M$ satisfying certain technical conditions, the topological entropy of the set of points with non-dense forward orbits is bounded below by the unstable metric entropy (in the sense of Ledrappier–Young) of certain invariant measures. This also gives a unified proof of the fact that the topological entropy of such a set is equal to the topological entropy of $f$, when $f$ is a toral automorphism or the time-one map of a certain non-quasiunipotent homogeneous flow.

In this paper we prove a multifractal formalism of Birkhoff averages for interval maps with countably many branches. Furthermore, we prove that under certain assumptions the Birkhoff spectrum is real analytic. We also show that new phenomena occur; indeed, the spectrum can be constant or it can have points where it is not analytic. Conditions for these to happen are obtained. Applications of these results to number theory are also given. Finally, we compute the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points for which the Birkhoff average is infinite.

Let$G$be a semisimple Lie group of rank one and$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}$be a torsion-free discrete subgroup of$G$. We show that in$G/\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}$, given$\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}>0$, any trajectory of a unipotent flow remains in the set of points with injectivity radius larger than$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FF}$for a$1-\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}$proportion of the time, for some$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FF}>0$. The result also holds for any finitely generated discrete subgroup$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}$and this generalizes Dani’s quantitative non-divergence theorem [On orbits of unipotent flows on homogeneous spaces.Ergod. Th. & Dynam. Sys.4(1) (1984), 25–34] for lattices of rank-one semisimple groups. Furthermore, for a fixed$\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}>0$, there exists an injectivity radius$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FF}$such that, for any unipotent trajectory$\{u_{t}g\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}\}_{t\in [0,T]}$, either it spends at least a$1-\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}$proportion of the time in the set with injectivity radius larger than$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FF}$, for all large$T>0$, or there exists a$\{u_{t}\}_{t\in \mathbb{R}}$-normalized abelian subgroup$L$of$G$which intersects$g\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}g^{-1}$in a small covolume lattice. We also extend these results to when$G$is the product of rank-one semisimple groups and$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}$a discrete subgroup of$G$whose projection onto each non-trivial factor is torsion free.

For a one-parameter subgroup action on a finite-volume homogeneous space, we consider the set of points admitting divergent-on-average trajectories. We show that the Hausdorff dimension of this set is strictly less than the manifold dimension of the homogeneous space. As a corollary we know that the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points admitting divergent trajectories is not full, which proves a conjecture of Cheung [Hausdorff dimension of the set of singular pairs, Ann. of Math. (2) 173 (2011), 127–167].

We obtain precise estimates for the number of singularities of Selberg’s and Ruelle’s zeta functions for compact, higher-dimensional, locally symmetric Riemannian manifolds of strictly negative sectional curvature. The methods applied in this research represent a generalization of the methods described in the case of a compact Riemann surface. In particular, this includes an application of the Phragmen-Lindelof theorem, the variation of the argument of certain zeta functions, as well as the use of some classical analytic number theory techniques.
