The closure of the orbit of an irrational grid contains the fiber
Let $G=\text{SL}(d,\mathbb R)$ and $\Gamma = \text{SL}(d,\mathbb Z)$. The homogeneous space is identified with the space of unimodular lattices, denoted $X_d$. Let $Y_d$ denote the space of unimodular ...

Ergodicity of the action of $\operatorname{SL}(n,\mathbb R)$ on $\operatorname{SL}(n,\mathbb R)/\operatorname{SL}(n,\mathbb Z)$
$\DeclareMathOperator\SL{SL}$Let $G\mathrel{:=}\SL(n,\mathbb R)$ and $\Gamma\mathrel{:=}\SL(n,\mathbb Z)$. Consider the action of $G$ on $(G/\Gamma,\mu)$ by left translation, where $\mu$ is the Borel ...

Has dynamics on $G/\Gamma$ ever been used to prove interesting things about $\Gamma$?
Fix a Lie group $G$ and a discrete subgroup $\Gamma \subset G$. Homogeneous dynamics is about studying the actions of subgroups $H \subset G$ on the quotient $G/\Gamma$.
Does anyone know of an ...
