Abstract: We give a simplified and a direct proof of a special case of Ratner's theorem on closures and uniform distribution of individual orbits of unipotent flows; namely, the case of orbits of the diagonally embedded unipotent subgroup acting on $SL(2,K)/Gamm{a}_{1}imes\mathrm{...}imesSL(2,K)/Gamm{a}_n$, where $K$ is a locally compact field of characteristic 0 and each $Gamm{a}_i$ is a cocompact discrete subgroup of $SL(2,K)$. This special case of Ratner's theorem plays a crucial role in the proofs of uniform distribution of Heegner points by Vatsal, and Mazur conjecture on Heegner points by C. Cornut; and their generalizations in their joint work on CM-points and quaternion algebras. A purpose of the article is to make the ergodic theoretic results accessible to a wide audience.
