On the hyperbolic prime number theorem

Abstract

Friedlander and Iwaniec proved that the number of points of the orbit {γi : γ∈SL2(Z)} lying at a distance p−2 from the origin i of the upper half-plane, with p≤ x prime, is of order x/log x; the upper bound is unconditional, while the lower one rests on a strong hypothesis concerning the distribution of primes in arithmetic progressions. We consider instead square-free distances and prove unconditionally an asymptotic formula, whose main term is of order x. Employing the weighted linear sieve, we also show unconditionally that the square-free distances n with at most $7$ prime factors contribute ≫ x/log x. Finally, assuming that the sequence r(n−2)r(n+2) has level of distribution xθ in arithmetic progressions, where r(n) is the number of ways to write n as a sum of two squares, we obtain the same lower bound for the distances with at most N prime factors (the value $7$ corresponds to θ=1/6).
