Taylor McAdam- Almost-Prime Times in Horospherical Flows
Explore an advanced mathematics lecture on almost-prime times in horospherical flows, delivered by Taylor McAdam at the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics. Delve into effective dynamical results for horospherical flows on the space of lattices using the "thickening" method of Margulis. Discover how these findings are applied to study the distribution of almost-prime times in horospherical orbits and their connection to Sarnak's Mobius disjointness conjecture. Examine topics such as the space of lattices, subgroup actions, rigidity of horospherical actions, equidistribution of primes, and the horocycle flow at prime times. Gain insights into qualitative and effective equidistribution of continuous flows and arithmetic progressions in this 42-minute presentation, part of the Hausdorff Trimester Program "Dynamics: Topology and Numbers" conference.
