Abstract

We study the error of the number of unimodular lattice points that fall into a dilated and centred ellipse around 00. We first show that the study of the error, when the error is normalized by t\sqrt{t} with tt the parameter of dilatation of the ellipse, when tt tends to infinity and when the lattice is random, is reduced to the study of a Siegel transform S(ft)(L)\mathcal{S}(f_{t})(L) that depends on tt. Then, by making tt \rightarrow \infty, we see that S(ft)\mathcal{S}(f_{t}) converges in law towards a modified Siegel transform with random weights S(F)(θ,L)\mathcal{S}(F)(\theta,L) where θ\theta is a second random parameter. Finally, we show that this last quantity converges almost surely and we study the existence of the moments of its law.
