Rigidity and Ratner's Rigidity Theorem in Horocycle Flows - Lecture 5

Simons Semester on Dynamics via YouTube

Overview

Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only!
Explore the fifth lecture in a six-part series on horocycle flows and their time-changes, focusing on Ratner's Rigidity Theorem. Delve into advanced mathematical concepts within dynamical systems theory, examining the rigidity properties of horocycle flows and their smooth time-changes. Learn how these uniformly parabolic dynamics exhibit unique behaviors in compact spaces, building upon previous discussions of ergodicity, mixing properties, and equidistribution of transverse curves. Part of the Simons Semester on Dynamics, this mathematical exploration connects to broader applications beyond SL2(R) and examines fundamental questions in the field of homogeneous unipotent flows.
