Abstract

The main result of this paper is a construction of finitely additive measures for higher rank abelian actions on Heisenberg nilmanifolds. Under a full measure set of Diophantine conditions for the generators of the action, we construct Bufetov functionals on rectangles on $ (2g+1) $-dimensional Heisenberg manifolds. We prove that deviation of the ergodic integral of higher rank actions is described by the asymptotic of Bufetov functionals for a sufficiently smooth function. As a corollary, the distribution of normalized ergodic integrals which have variance 1, converges along certain subsequences to a non-degenerate compactly supported measure on the real line.
