Abstract

We will describe recent progress in our ongoing program with Jean Bourgain to understand a number of different problems through the lens of thin orbits. An important role will be played by the production of levels of distribution (in certain Affine Sieves) which go "beyond expansion." No prior knowledge of these topics is assumed
