Almost periodic functions and hyperbolic counting

Abstract

In this paper we prove the existence of asymptotic moments, and an estimate on the tails of the limiting distribution, for a specific class of almost periodic functions. Then we introduce the hyperbolic circle problem, proving an estimate on the asymptotic variance of the remainder that improves a result of Chamizo. Applying the results of the first part we prove the existence of limiting distribution and asymptotic moments for three functions that are integrated versions of the remainder, and were considered originally (with due adaptations to our settings) by Wolfe, Phillips and Rudnick, and Hill and Parnovski.
