Distribution of integer points on determinant surfaces and a $\text{mod-}p$ analogue

Number Theory 2026-05-28 v3

Abstract

We establish an asymptotic formula for counting integer solutions with smooth weights to an equation of the form xyzw=rxy-zw=r, where rr is a non-zero integer, with an explicit main term and a strong bound on the error term in terms of the size of the variables x,y,z,wx, y, z, w as well as of rr. We also establish an asymptotic formula for counting integer solutions with smooth weights to the congruence xyzw1(mod p)xy-zw \equiv 1 (\text{mod }p), where pp is a large prime, with a strong bound on the error term.
