Abstract
Let Γ be a geometrically finite Kleinian group, relative to the hyperbolic space ℍ = ℍd+1, and let δ denote the Hausdorff dimension of its limit set, that we suppose here strictly larger than d/2. We prove a central limit theorem for the geodesic flow on the manifold M := Γ\ℍ, with respect to the Patterson-Sullivan measure. The argument uses the ground-state diffusion and its canonical lift to the frame bundle, for which the existence of a potential operator is proved.
