Local mixing of one-parameter diagonal flows on Anosov homogeneous spaces

Abstract

Let $G$ be a connected semisimple real algebraic group and $\Gamma <G$ be a Zariski dense Anosov subgroup with respect to a minimal parabolic subgroup. We prove local mixing of the one-parameter diagonal flow $\{\exp (t\mathsf{v}):t\in \mathbb{R}\}$ on $\Gamma \backslash G$ for any interior direction $\mathsf{v}$ of the limit cone of $\Gamma$ with respect to the Bowen--Margulis--Sullivan measure associated to $\mathsf{v}$. More generally, we allow a class of deviations to this flow along a direction $\mathsf{u}$ in some fixed subspace transverse to $\mathsf{v}$. We also obtain a uniform bound for the correlation function which decays exponentially in $\Vert \mathsf{u}{\Vert }^2$. The precise form of the result is required for several applications such as the asymptotic formula for the decay of matrix coefficients in $L^2(\Gamma \backslash G)$ proved by Edwards--Lee--Oh.
