Equidistribution of Elements of Norm 1 in Cyclic Extensions

Number Theory 2022-11-09 v2

Abstract

Upon quotienting by units, the elements of norm 1 in a number field KK form a countable subset of a torus of dimension r1+r21r_1 + r_2 - 1 where r1r_1 and r2r_2 are the numbers of real and pairs of complex embeddings. When KK is Galois with cyclic Galois group we demonstrate that this countable set is equidistributed in a finite cover of this torus with respect to a natural partial ordering induced by Hilbert's Theorem 90.
