Abstract: We prove several results for dynamics of $SL(d,R)$-actions on non-compact parameter spaces by studying associated discrete sets in Euclidean spaces. This allows us to give elementary proofs of logarithm laws for horocycle flows on hyperbolic surfaces and moduli spaces of flat surfaces. We also give applications to quantitative equidistribution and Diophantine approximation.

Review text

Interactions between the ergodic theory of flows on homogeneous spaces of Lie groups and Diophantine approximation form a thriving area of current research. Following works of Dani and Kleinbock-Margulis, there is now a robust and very useful dictionary called the ``Dani correspondence which relates Diophantine properties of vectors in \(\mathbb{R}^n\) and cuspidal excursions of orbits of certain partially hyperbolic flows on \(\text{SL}_{n+1}(\mathbb R)/\text{SL}_{n+1}(\mathbb Z)\). This well-written paper provides an axiomatic and elementary treatment of some important instances of this connection, especially in the setting of ``horospherical flows. The author proves interesting results relating Diophantine exponents and dynamical properties of associated orbits. He also proves a logarithm law for horocycle flows on moduli spaces of quadratic differentials and obtains bounds for the deviation of ergodic averages for horocycle flows.
