Asymptotic homology of the quotient of $PSL_2(\BR)$ by a modular group

英文摘要：

Consider $ G:= PSL_2(\R)\equiv T^1\H^2$, a modular group $ Γ$, and the homogeneous space $ Γ\sm G \equiv T^1(Γ\sm\H^2)$. Endow $ G $, and then $ Γ\sm G $, with a canonical left-invariant metric, thereby equipping it with a quasi hyperbolic geometry. Windings around handles and cusps of $ Γ\sm G $ are calculated by integrals of closed 1-forms of $ Γ\sm G $. The main results express, in both Brownian and geodesic cases, the joint convergence of the law of these integrals, with a stress on the asymptotic independence between slow and fast windings. The non-hyperbolicity of $ Γ\sm G $ is responsible for a difference between the Brownian and geodesic asymptotic behaviours, difference which does not exist at the level of the Riemann surface $Γ\sm\H^2$ (and generally in hyperbolic cases). Identification of the cohomology classes of closed 1-forms and with harmonic 1-forms, and equidistribution of large geodesic spheres, are also addressed.
