Abstract

Linnik type problems concern the distribution of projections of integral points on the unit sphere as their norm increases, and different generalizations of this phenomenon. Our work addresses a question of this type: we prove the uniform distribution of the projections of primitive Z2\mathbb{Z}^{2} points in the pp-adic unit sphere, as their (real) norm tends to infinity. The proof is via counting lattice points in semi-simple SS-arithmetic groups.
