Equidistribution of CM points on Shimura Curves and ternary theta series

Number Theory 2025-04-17 v1

Abstract

We prove an equidistribution statement for the reduction of Galois orbits of CM points on the special fiber of a Shimura curve over a totally real field, considering both the split and the ramified case. The main novelty of the ramified case consists in the use of the moduli interpretation of the Cerednik--Drinfeld uniformisation. Our result is achieved by associating to the reduction of CM points certain Hilbert modular forms of weight 3/23/2 and by analyzing their Fourier coefficients. Moreover, we also deduce the Shimura curves case of the integral version of the Andr\'e--Oort conjecture.
