Logarithm laws for unipotent flows, I

We prove analogues of the logarithm laws of Sullivan and Kleinbock-Margulis in the context of unipotent flows. In particular, we obtain results for one-parameter actions on the space of lattices $SL(n, \R)/SL(n, \Z)$. The key lemma for our results says the measure of the set of unimodular lattices in $\R^n$ that does not intersect a `large' volume subset of $\R^n$ is `small'. This can be considered as a `random' analogue of the classical Minkowski theorem in the geometry of numbers.

Ultrametric Logarithm Laws I

We announce ultrametric analogues of the results of Kleinbock-Margulis for shrinking target properties of semisimple group actions on symmetric spaces. The main applications are S-arithmetic Diophantine approximation results and logarithm laws for buildings, generalizing the work of Hersonsky-Paulin on trees.

Logarithm laws and shrinking target properties

We survey some of the recent developments in the study of logarithm laws and shrinking target properties for various families of dynamical systems. We discuss connections to geometry, diophantine approximation, and probability theory.
