HIGHER MOMENT FORMULAE AND LIMITING DISTRIBUTIONS OF LATTICE POINTS

Abstract

We establish higher moment formulae for Siegel transforms on the space of affine unimodular lattices as well as on certain congruence quotients of $\mathrm {SL}_d({\mathbb {R}})$ . As applications, we prove functional central limit theorems for lattice point counting for affine and congruence lattices using the method of moments.
