Arithmetic Quantum Unique Ergodicity for 3-dimensional hyperbolic manifold

Abstract:

The Quantum Unique Ergodicity conjecture of Rudnick and Sarnak says that eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on a compact manifold of negative curvature become equidistributed as the eigenvalue tends to infinity. In the talk, I will discuss recent work on this problem for arithmetic quotients of the three-dimensional hyperbolic space. I will discuss our key result that Hecke eigenfunctions cannot concentrate on certain proper submanifolds. Joint work with Lior Silberman.
