How to show the geodesic orbit of a badly approximable number are/are not homogeneously equi...

A number is in BA if its orbit is bounded. Any such orbit closure must contain a full $A=\langle g_t\rangle$ orbit. By examining the possible subgroups, any such hypothetical $H$, as a stability group …

Help in understanding the singular system of linear forms and non escape of mass

Okay, these are just basic technical tidbits. Unsure if anything here is of research level. $SO(n)$ acts transitively on the sphere of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ (there's a slight ambiguity about $0$, but I gue …

Equidistribution of the orbit $\{\text{diag}(t^a,t^{-a})\Lambda \}_{t>0}$ for a.e. $\Lambda\...

This thing cannot hold no matter what. As Echo rightfully commented, the expression doesn't even compile when $t=0$. It is true one might temper the integral away from $0$, but that's not what you ask …

The (last step of the) proof that the set of badly approximable matrices has measure zero

Notice that every $m\in SL_{n}(\mathbb{R})$ can be written as $m=u\cdot q$, where $q$ is an ``opposite horospherical'' (maybe with center), namely it is not getting expanded by the $g_{t}$ action. The …

The closure of the orbit of an irrational grid contains the fiber

First of all, $Y$ is not called the “grid space”. It is sometimes called the affine space and can be identified with a quotient of the affine group $\operatorname{ASL}_{n}$, namely the semi-direct pro …

References on Lie groups and dynamical systems

The connections between Dynamics and Lie Groups (or Algebraic groups) comes mainly in two flavours: Smooth dynamics, like others have stated Hamiltonian dyanmics and differential equations. Applicati …

An angle between two vectors in Oseledets theorem

Ok, let take $v$ in the bundle at $x$. We may decompose $v=v^{u}+v^{s}\in E^{u}\oplus E^{s}$. Assume without loss of generality that $\lVert v\rVert=1$. Applying $A^{i}$, using equivariance and Osceld …

The Hausdorff codimension of singular matrices vs. the Hausdorff codimension of points with ...

It is evident that the singular vectors are defined as the ``$u_{A}$-part which is $g_{t}$ divergent in the future'', this gives $m\cdot n$ ($=\dim \left(u_{A}\right)$) minus the dimension of the sing …

Ratner's orbit closure for a unipotent semigroup

$\DeclareMathOperator\supp{supp}$The theorem holds for semigroups as well (well, in the finite volume setting! in the infinite volume setting there are subtleties between two-sided and one-sided avera …

Geodesics on hyperbolic surfaces whose closures have arbitrary Hausdorff dimension

Show that for a Bernoulli system, there exists ergodic (Bernoulli) measures of any given entropy (between 0 and full entropy). Pick such a measure with appropriate entropy as you would like. Recall t …

Has dynamics on $G/\Gamma$ ever been used to prove interesting things about $\Gamma$?

There's a nice proof by Margulis showing that arithmetic subgroups are indeed lattices using the famous Dani-Margulis non-divergence theorem. Actually if you will investigate Ratner's original formula …

rate of equidistribution of the horocycle flow for $SL(2, \mathbb{Z})$

While Peter Humphries' answer is entirely correct for the question asked by the OP, the technique indicated there is far from addressing the most general situation. The most basic technique towards t …

Entropy equals zero?

EDIT - The answer below deals with an ergodic m.p.s As this question got up-voted, I've decided to fuly write a solution, based on the sketch I've made in the comments. Fix some $\varepsilon>0$ smal …

Uniquely ergodicity and polynomial ergodic average

This is indeed true for some "nice systems", for example one can show this theorem (for say $L^{2}$-functions) for Kronecker systems simply by van-der-Corput trick. In general, those averages converg …

If there is a dense geodesic, are almost all geodesics equidistributed? Dense?

The first question is false as stated. By Artin's encoding, geodesics on $SL_{2}(\mathbb{R})/SL_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$ corresponding to continued fractions, and the geodesic flow corresponds to the shift. I …
