Quantitative Version of the Oppenheim Conjecture for Inhomogeneous Quadratic Forms

A quantitative version of the Oppenheim conjecture for inhomogeneous quadratic forms is proved. We also give an application to eigenvalue spacing on flat 2-tori with Aharonov-Bohm flux

Logarithm laws for flows on homogeneous spaces

We prove that almost all geodesics on a noncompact locally symmetric space of finite volume grow with a logarithmic speed -- the higher rank generalization of a theorem of D. Sullivan (1982). More generally, under certain conditions on a sequence of subsets $A_n$ of a homogeneous space $G/\Gamma$ ($G$ a semisimple Lie group, $\Gamma$ a non-uniform lattice) and a sequence of elements $f_n$ of $G$ we prove that for almost all points $x$ of the space, one has $f_n x\in A_n$ for infinitely many $n$. The main tool is exponential decay of correlation coefficients of smooth functions on $G/\Gamma$. Besides the aforementioned application to geodesic flows, as a corollary we obtain a new proof of the classical Khinchin-Groshev theorem in simultaneous Diophantine approximation, and settle a related conjecture recently made by M. Skriganov

Khintchine-type theorems on manifolds: the convergence case for standard and multiplicative versions

An analogue of the convergence part of the Khintchine-Groshev theorem, as well as its multiplicative version, is proved for nondegenerate smooth submanifolds in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The proof combines methods from metric number theory with a new approach involving the geometry of lattices in Euclidean spaces.Comment: 27 page
