Abstract Abelian covers of hyperbolic three-manifolds are ubiquitous. We prove the local mixing theorem of the frame flow for abelian covers of closed hyperbolic three-manifolds. We obtain a classification theorem for measures invariant under the horospherical subgroup. We also describe applications to the prime geodesic theorem as well as to other counting and equidistribution problems. Our results are proved for any abelian cover of a homogeneous space Γ0∖G where G is a rank one simple Lie group and Γ0 < G is a convex cocompact Zariski dense subgroup.

Our basic objects will be compact, even-dimensional, locally symmetric Riemannian manifolds with strictly negative sectional curvature. The goal of the present paper is to investigate the prime geodesic theorems that are associated with this class of spaces. First, following classical Randol’s appraoch in the compact Riemann surface case, we improve the error term in the corresponding result. Second, we reduce the exponent in the newly acquired remainder by using the Gallagher–Koyama techniques. In particular, we improve DeGeorge’s bound Oxη, 2ρ − ρn ≤ η < 2ρ up to Ox2ρ−ρηlogx−1, and reduce the exponent 2ρ − ρn replacing it by 2ρ − ρ4n+14n2+1 outside a set of finite logarithmic measure. As usual, n denotes the dimension of the underlying locally symmetric space, and ρ is the half-sum of the positive roots. The obtained prime geodesic theorem coincides with the best known results proved for compact Riemann surfaces, hyperbolic three-manifolds, and real hyperbolic manifolds with cusps.

AbstractLet Γ be a rank-one arithmetic subgroup of a semisimple Lie group G. For fixed K-Type, the spectral side of the Selberg trace formula defines a distribution on the space of infinitesimal characters of G, whose discrete part encodes the dimensions of the spaces of square-integrable Γ-automorphic forms. It is shown that this distribution converges to the Plancherel measure of G when Γ shrinks to the trivial group in a certain restricted way. The analogous assertion for cocompact lattices Γ follows from results of DeGeorge-Wallach and Delorme.

AbstractThis article complements the Lorentzian Aubry–Mather Theory in Suhr (Geom Dedicata 160:91–117, 2012; J Fixed Point Theory Appl 21:71, 2019) by giving optimal multiplicity results for the number of maximal invariant measures. As an application the optimal Lipschitz continuity of the time separation on the Abelian cover is established.

AbstractAn abelian cover is a finite morphism X→Y of varieties which is the quotient map for a generically faithful action of a finite abelian group G. Abelian covers with Y smooth and X normal were studied in [R. Pardini, Abelian covers of algebraic varieties, J. Reine Angew. Math. 417 (1991), 191–213; MR 1103912(92g:14012)]. Here we study the non-normal case, assuming that X and Y are S2 varieties that have at worst normal crossings outside a subset of codimension greater than or equal to two. Special attention is paid to the case of ℤr2-covers of surfaces, which is used in [V. Alexeev and R. Pardini, Explicit compactifications of moduli spaces of Campedelli and Burniat surfaces, Preprint (2009), math.AG/arXiv:0901.4431] to construct explicitly compactifications of some components of the moduli space of surfaces of general type.

In this paper we investigate the rigidity of symmetric spaces of non-compact type using ergodic theory such as Patterson–Sullivan measure and the marked length spectrum along with the cross ratio on the limit set. In particular, we prove that the marked length spectrum determines the Zariski dense subgroup up to conjugacy in the isometry group of the product of rank-one symmetric spaces. As an application, we show that two convex cocompact, negatively curved, locally symmetric manifolds are isometric if the Thurston distance is zero and the critical exponents of the Poincaré series are the same, and the same is true if the geodesic stretch is equal to one.

The proofs of Theorems 5.1 and 7.1 of [2] contain a gap. We will show below how to close it under some suitable additional assumptions in these theorems and their corollaries. We will assume the notation of [2] throughout. In particular, $\mu$ is a measure invariant and ergodic under an $R^k$-action $\alpha$. Let us first explain the gap. Both theorems are proved by establishing a dichotomy for the conditional measures of $\mu$ along the intersection of suitable stable manifolds. They were either atomic or invariant under suitable translation or unipotent subgroups $U$. Atomicity eventually led to zero entropy. Invariance of the conditional measures showed invariance of $\mu$ under $U$. We then claimed that $\mu$ was algebraic using, respectively, unique ergodicity of the translation subgroup on a rational subtorus or Ratner's theorem (cf. [2, Lemma 5.7]). This conclusion, however, only holds for the $U$-ergodic components of $\mu$ which may not equal $\mu$. In fact, in the toral case, the $R^k$-action may have a zero-entropy factor such that the conditional measures along the fibers are Haar measures along a foliation by rational subtori. Since invariant measures with zero entropy have not been classified, we cannot conclude algebraicity of the total measure $\mu$ at this time. In the toral case, the existence of zero entropy factors turns out to be precisely the obstruction to our methods. The case of Weyl chamber flows is somewhat different as the ‘Haar’ direction of the measure may not be integrable. In this case, we need to use additional information coming from the semisimplicity of the ambient Lie group to arrive at the versions of Theorem 7.1 presented below.

AbstractLet Γ be a dense subgroup of a simply connected nilpotent Lie group G generated by a finite symmetric set S. We consider the n-ball Sn for the word metric induced by S on Γ. We show that Sn (with uniform measure) becomes equidistributed on G with respect to the Haar measure as n tends to infinity. We also prove the analogous result for random walk averages.

Let G R G_\mathbb R be a real form of a complex, semisimple Lie group G G . Assume G R G_\mathbb R has holomorphic discrete series. Let W \mathcal W be a nilpotent coadjoint G R G_\mathbb R -orbit contained in the wave front set of a holomorphic discrete series. We prove a limit formula, expressing the canonical measure on W \mathcal W as a limit of canonical measures on semisimple coadjoint orbits, where the parameter of orbits varies over the positive chamber defined by the Borel subalgebra associated with holomorphic discrete series.

AbstractA homeomorphismfof a manifoldMis calledH1-transitive if there is a transitive lift of an iterate offto the universal Abelian cover$\tilde {M}$. Roughly speaking, this means thatfhas orbits which repeatedly and densely explore all elements ofH1(M). For a rel pseudo-Anosov map ϕ of a compact surfaceMwe show that the following are equivalent: (a) ϕ isH1-transitive, (b) the action of ϕ onH1(M) has spectral radius one and (c) the lifts of the invariant foliations of ϕ to$\tilde {M}$have dense leaves. The proof relies on a characterization of transitivity for twisted ℤd-extensions of a transitive subshift of finite type.
