One of the main objects of the paper is a special family of horocycle-invariant finitely-additive Hoelder measures on rectifiable arcs. An asymptotic formula for ergodic integrals for horocycle flows is obtained in terms of the finitely-additive measures, and limit theorems follow as a corollary of the asymptotic formula. The objects and results of this paper are similar to those in [15], [16], [4] and [5] for translation flows on flat surfaces. The arguments are based on the classification of invariant distributions for horocycle flows established in [12].", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-04-22T20:10:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37D40", "37A17", "37A50", "22E46", "60B10" ], "keywords": [ "horocycle flows", "limit theorems", "asymptotic formula", "horocycle-invariant finitely-additive hoelder measures", "compact surfaces" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 52, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1104.4502B" } } }
