Abstract We will set the scene by considering Cantor sets in the real line and generated by simple iterated function schemes and estimates on the value of their Hausdorff dimension. This has applications to problems related to the Zaremba conjecture and Lagrange spectra. We will then focus on the problem of estimating the (top) Lyapunov exponent for random matrix products. By way of an application, we will be interested in the value of the drift for Fuchsian groups and implications for the harmonic measure.

Abstract The Littlewood Conjecture states that for all pairs of real numbers \((\alpha, \beta)\) the product \(\mid q\mid \mid q\alpha+p_1\mid\mid q\beta+p_2\mid\) becomes arbitrarily close to \(0\) when the vector \((q, p_1, p_2)\) ranges in \( \mathbb{Z}^3 \) and \( q \neq 0\). To date, despite much progress, it is not known whether this statement is true. In this talk, I will discuss a partial converse of the Littlewood conjecture, where the factor \(\mid q\mid\) is replaced by an increasing function \(f(\mid q\mid).\) More specifically, following up on the work of Badziahin and Velani, I will be interested in determining functions \(f\) for which the above product and its higher dimensional generalisations stay bounded away from \(0\) for at least one pair \((\alpha, \beta) \in\, \mathbb{R}^2.\) This problem happens to be intimately connected with the equidistribution rate of certain segments on the expanding torus in \( SL_3(\mathbb{R})/SL_3(\mathbb{Z})\) under the action of the full diagonal group.

Abstract Let \(\{a(t):t \in \mathbb{R}\}\) be a diagonalizable subgroup of \(SL(d,\mathbb{R})\) for which the expanded horosphere \(U\) is abelian. By the Birkhoff ergodic theorem, for any point \(x \in SL(d,\mathbb{R})/SL(d,\mathbb{Z})\) and almost every \(u \in U\) the point \(ux\) is Birkhoff generic for the flow \(a(t)\). One may ask whether the same is true when the points in \(U\) are sampled with respect to a measure singular to the Lebesgue measure. In this talk, we discuss work with Omri Solan proving that almost every point on an analytic curve within U is Birkhoff generic when the curve satisfies a non-degeneracy condition.

Titel Shrinking rates of horizontal gaps for generic translation surfaces
Referent:in, Affiliation Dr. Samantha Fairchild, University of Osnabrück

Ort Y27 H 28
Abstract A translation surface is given by polygons in the plane, with sides identified by translations to create a closed Riemann surface with a flat structure away from finitely many singular points. Understanding geodesic flow on a surface involves understanding saddle connections. Saddle connections are the geodesics starting and ending at these singular points and are associated to a discrete subset of the plane. To measure the behavior of saddle connections of length at most R, we obtain precise decay rates as R goes to infinity for the difference in angle between two almost horizontal saddle connections. This is based on joint work with Jon Chaika.

Ort Y27 H 28
Abstract Let \(A\) be the group of positive diagonal \(d\times d\) matrices on \(SL_d(\mathbb{R})\) and \(U\cong \mathbb{R}^{d-1}\) be an abelian expanding horospherical group in \(SL_d(\mathbb{R})\), where \(d\ge 2\). Denote by \(A^{+}\) the expanding cone in \(A\) associated to \(U\). We say that \(x\in SL_d(\mathbb{R})/SL_d(\mathbb{Z})\) is \(A^{+}\)-divergent on average if for any compact set \(K\) the orbit \(A^{+}x\) escapes \(K\) on average. One may ask how large the set of points which are \(A^{+}\)-divergent on average is. In this talk, I will discuss upper and lower bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points which are \(A^{+}\)-divergent on average.

Ort Y27 H 28
Abstract We know from a result by Avila and Forni that almost every interval exchange transformation is weakly-mixing. Until very recently, no (non trivial) example with discrete spectrum was known. In this talk, I will describe two families of interval exchange transformations which are conjugate to rotations of the two dimensional torus.

Titel Exact dimension of Oseledets measures

Datum, Zeit 21. November 2022, 13:30-14:30
Ort Y27 H 28
Abstract This talk will report on an ongoing joint work with Pablo Lessa (Montevideo). We consider a random walk on a group of matrices. Under suitable assumptions, Oseledets Theorem yields numbers (the Lyapunov exponents) and a random splitting into so-called Oseledets subspaces. This splitting defines a (random) point in a product of Grassmannians. Our Main result is that the distribution of this point is an exact-dimensional measure. The dimension has a geometric interpretation in terms of the exponents and some partial entropies. The talk will present the statement and the main partial results. As an example, we also discuss the case when the random walk is supported by an Anosov 3-dimensional representation of a surface group.

Titel Veech groups of origami that are congruence groups

Ort Y27 H 28
Abstract Origamis are special translation surfaces which are obtained as patchwork from finitely many Euclidean squares. An important algebraic invariant is their Veech group which is a finite index subgroup of \(SL(2,\mathbb{Z})\). It is unknown which subgroups of \(SL(2,\mathbb{Z})\) occur as Veech groups. However for congruence groups of prime level there is a constructive approach which shows that all but five special cases occur. We find four of the missing five cases and study the question whether the result can be generalized to general congruence groups. The question is intimately related to the study of orbit spaces of \(SL(2,\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z})\).

Datum, Zeit 12. Dezember 2022, 13:30-14:30
Ort Y27 H 28
Abstract Marcelo Viana has conjectured that a smooth diffeomorphism admits a physical measure if the Lyapunov exponents of its orbits in a full volume set do not vanish. I will explain how a technique controlling the continuity of Lyapunov exponents allows to prove this conjecture in the case of smooth surface diffeomorphisms. This is a joint work with Jérôme Buzzi and Omri Sarig.
