Modular Symbols have a Normal Distribution

Original Paper

Abstract.

We prove that the modular symbols appropriately normalized and ordered have a Gaussian distribution for all cofinite subgroups of \({\text{SL}}_{\text{2}} (\mathbb{R}).\) We use spectral deformations to study the poles and the residues of Eisenstein series twisted by power of modular symbols.
