Density of almost squares of horospherical orbits in non-uniform quotients of SL2(ℝ)×SL2(ℝ)

Abstract

Let Γ⊂SL2(ℝ)×SL2(ℝ) be an irreducible, non-uniform lattice and define the space X = SL2(ℝ)×SL2(ℝ)/Γ. Let U be the standard horospherical subgroup in SL2(ℝ)×SL2(ℝ). We show that for every δ>0 and x∈ X with dense U-orbit, the U-orbit evaluated at almost squares, {(u(n2−δ,m2−δ) : n,m∈ℕ}· x, is dense in X. The main idea of the proof is to shadow large periodic U-orbits and reduce the statement to a density statement within the periodic U-orbit, i.e. a statement for the $2$-torus 𝕋2. This then follows from an effective version of Weyl's inequality to deduce the result. The effective shadowing of periodic U-orbits is achieved using tools from homogeneous dynamics, namely quantitative non-divergence of horospherical subgroups, recurrence under the diagonal flow and effective equidistribution of expanding horospherical subgroups. Our approach follows the strategy of the work \cite{KR25} of \citeauthor{KR25} who established density of almost squares of the horocycle flow for non-uniform lattices in SL2(ℝ).
