Abstract

Let K be a p -adic field, and let H = P S L 2 ( K ) endowed with the Haar measure determined by giving a maximal compact subgroup measure 1 . Let A L H ( x ) denote the number of conjugacy classes of arithmetic lattices in H with co-volume bounded by x . We show that under the assumption that K does not contain the element ζ + ζ - 1 , where ζ denotes the p -th root of unity over p , we have lim x log A L H ( x ) x log x = q - 1 where q denotes the order of the residue field of K .

Let $AL_H(x)$ denote the number of conjugacy classes of arithmetic lattices in $H$ with co-volume bounded by $x$. We show that under the assumption that $K$ does not contain the element $\zeta +\zeta ^{-1}$, where $\zeta $ denotes the $p$-th root of unity over $\mathbb {Q}_p$, we have \[\lim _{x\rightarrow \infty }\frac{\log AL_H(x)}{x\log x}=q-1\] where $q$ denotes the order of the residue field of $K$.
