Let G : = SO ( n , 1 ) and Γ ( n - 1 ) / 2 for n = 2 , 3 and when δ > n - 2 for n 4 , we obtain an effective archimedean counting result for a discrete orbit of Γ in a homogeneous space H G where H is the trivial group, a symmetric subgroup or a horospherical subgroup. More precisely, we show that for any effectively well-rounded family { T H G } of compact subsets, there exists η > 0 such that # [ e ] Γ T = ( T ) + O ( ( T ) 1 - η ) for an explicit measure on H G which depends on Γ . We also apply the affine sieve and describe the distribution of almost primes on orbits of Γ in arithmetic settings. One of key ingredients in our approach is an effective asymptotic formula for the matrix coefficients of L 2 ( Γ G ) that we prove by combining methods from spectral analysis, harmonic analysis and ergodic theory. We also prove exponential mixing of the frame flows with respect to the Bowen-Margulis-Sullivan measure.
