We study the distribution of the traces of the Frobenius endomorphism of genus $g$ curves which are quartic non-cyclic covers of $\mathbb{P}^{1}_{\mathbb{F}_{q}}$, as the curve varies in an irreducible component of the moduli space. We show…

We study the variation of the trace of the Frobenius endomorphism associated to a cyclic trigonal curve of genus g over a field of q elements as the curve varies in an irreducible component of the moduli space. We show that for q fixed and…

Let $E$ be a nonsingular elliptic curve over the rational numbers, and let $\tau^n=p^n+1-\#E(\mathbb{F}_{p^n})$. A result in the current literature claims that the normalized traces of Frobenius…

In a previous article, we obtained data on the distribution of traces of Frobenius of non-hyperelliptic genus $3$ curves over small finite fields. In the present one, we give a heuristic explanation of these data, by extrapolating from…

In the 1960's, Birch proved that the traces of Frobenius for elliptic curves taken at random over a large finite field is modeled by the semicircular distribution (i.e. the usual Sato-Tate for non-CM elliptic curves). In analogy with…

Vertical Sato-Tate states that the Frobenius trace of a randomly chosen elliptic curve over $\mathbb F_p$ tends to a semicircular distribution as $p\rightarrow \infty$. We go beyond this statement by considering the number of elliptic…

We obtain new results concerning the Sato-Tate conjecture on the distribution of Frobenius traces over single and double parametric families of elliptic curves. We consider these curves for values of parameters having prescribed arithmetic…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $X$ be an absolutely irreducible affine plane curve over $\mathbb{F}_p$, and $g,f\in\mathbb{F}_p(x,y)$. We study the distribution of the values of the hybrid exponential sums S_n on $n\in\mathcal{I}$ for some…

We describe a probability distribution on isomorphism classes of principally quasi-polarized p-divisible groups over a finite field k of characteristic p which can reasonably be thought of as "uniform distribution," and we compute the…

We consider a special family of Gaussian hypergeometric functions whose entries are cubic and trivial characters over finite fields. The special values of these functions are known to give the Frobenius traces of families of Hessian…

In this paper we propose conjectures that assert that, the sequence of Frobenius angles of a given elliptic curve over $\mathbf{Q}$ without complex multiplication is pseudorandom, in other words that the Frobenius angles are statistically…

We obtain distribution results for traces of Frobenius for various families of elliptic curves with respect to the Lang-Trotter conjecture, extremal primes, and the central limit theorem. This includes some generalisations and bounds…

The number of points on a hyperelliptic curve over a field of $q$ elements may be expressed as $q+1+S$ where $S$ is a certain character sum. We study fluctuations of $S$ as the curve varies over a large family of hyperelliptic curves of…

We consider very general "random integers" and (attempt to) prove that many multiplicative and additive functions of such integers have limiting distributions. These integers include, for instance, the curvatures of Apollonian circle…

Under certain conditions on k we calculate the limit distribution of the k:th largest eigenvalue, x_k, of the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE). More specifically, if n is the dimension of a random matrix from the GUE and k is such that both…

We study the fluctuations of eigenvalues from a class of Wigner random matrices that generalize the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble. We begin by considering an $n \times n$ matrix from the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble (GOE) or Gaussian…

This paper is devoted to the Gaussian fluctuations and deviations of the traces of tridiagonal random matrix. Under quite general assumptions, we prove that the traces are approximately normal distributed. Multi-dimensional central limit…

Recently E. Bombieri and N. M. Katz (2010) have demonstrated that several well-known results about the distribution of values of linear recurrence sequences lead to interesting statements for Frobenius traces of algebraic curves. Here we…

Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g \ge 1$ over a finite field $\F$ of cardinality $q$. In this paper, we first study $\#\J_C$, the size of the Jacobian of $C$ over $\F$ in case that $\F(C)/\F(X)$ is a geometric Galois…

Extending Katz-Sarnak heuristics, Ballini-Lombardo-Verzobio [BLV25] conjectures a limiting distribution as $p \to \infty$ for $\# A_g(\mathbb F_p,t)$, the number of $g$-dimensional PPAVs over $\mathbb F_p$ with trace $t$, as a product of…
