Many exponential sums over finite fields, including Gauss sums and Kloosterman sums, arise as the Fourier transform with respect to a character of the trace function of an $\ell$-adic sheaf on a commutative algebraic group. We study the…
We study various statistics regarding the distribution of the points \[\left\{\left(\frac{d}{q},\frac{\overline{d}}{q}\right) \in \mathbb{T}^2 : d \in (\mathbb{Z}/q\mathbb{Z})^{\times}\right\}\] as $q$ tends to infinity. Due to nontrivial…
For the generalized Dedekind sums s_{ij}(p,q) defined in association with the x^{i}y^{j}-coefficient of the Todd power series of the lattice cone in R^2 generated by (1,0) and (q,p), we associate an exponential sum. We obtain this…
Let $\mathbb F_q$ be the finite field of $q$ elements having characteristic $p$, and denote by $\mathbb K_\infty=\mathbb F_q((1/t))$ the field of formal Laurent series in $1/t$. We consider the equidistribution in $\mathbb T=\mathbb…
An integer-valued multiplicative function $f$ is said to be polynomially-defined if there is a nonconstant separable polynomial $F(T)\in \mathbb{Z}[T]$ with $f(p)=F(p)$ for all primes $p$. We study the distribution in coprime residue…
We study the symmetry groups and winding numbers of planar curves obtained as images of weighted sums of exponentials. More generally, we study the image of the complex unit circle under a finite or infinite Laurent series using a…
We formulate an abstract notion of equidistribution for families of $\lambda$-probability spaces parameterized by admissible $\mathbb{Z}$-sets. Under the assumption of equidistribution, we show that the $\sigma$-moment generating functions…
We study equidistribution of solutions of word equations of the form w(x,y)=g in the family of finite groups SL(2,q). We provide criteria for equidistribution in terms of the trace polynomial of w. This allows us to get an explicit…
We investigate exponential sums modulo primes whose phase function is a sparse polynomial, with exponents growing with the prime. In particular, such sums model those which appear in the study of the quantum cat map. While they are not…
Our main goal in this paper is to investigate the (q-)exponential $C$-distribution semigroups and (q-)exponential $C$-ultradistribution semigroups in the setting of sequentially complete locally convex spaces. We contribute to previous work…
We establish an equidistribution theorem for the zeros of random holomorphic sections of high powers of a positive holomorphic line bundle. The equidistribution is associated with a family of singular moderate measures. We also give a…
For a system of Laurent polynomials f_1,..., f_n \in C[x_1^{\pm1},..., x_n^{\pm1}] whose coefficients are not too big with respect to its directional resultants, we show that the solutions in the algebraic n-th dimensional complex torus of…
Weyl's classical equidistribution theorem states that real-valued polynomial sequences are uniformly distributed modulo 1, unless all non-constant coefficients are rational. A continuous function between two topological groups is called a…
Given a finite volume hyperbolic surface, a fundamental polygon and an oriented closed geodesic, we associate a partial covering of the surface. We prove that given a sequence of collections of oriented closed geodesics equidistributing in…
We study the distribution of families of multiplicative functions among the coprime residue classes to moduli varying uniformly in a wide range, obtaining analogues of the Siegel--Walfisz Theorem for large classes of multiplicative…
We consider equidistribution of angles for certain hyperbolic lattice points in the upper half-plane. Extending work of Friedlander and Iwaniec we show that for the full modular group equidistribution persists for matrices with…
We study the equidistribution of integers of the form $n= x_1^2 + \cdots + x_d^2$ under the arithmetic constraints given by $(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})^d$. The first step in addressing this problem is to construct modular forms whose Fourier…
Let $\ell$ be prime, and $K$ be a number field containing the $\ell$-th roots of unity. We use classical algebraic number theory and some analytic techniques to prove that the Steinitz classes of $\mathbb Z/\ell\mathbb Z$ extensions of $K$…
We study the asymptotic equidistribution of points with discrete energy close to Robin's constant of a compact set in the plane. Our main tools are the energy estimates from potential theory. We also consider the quantitative aspects of…
Upon quotienting by units, the elements of norm 1 in a number field $K$ form a countable subset of a torus of dimension $r_1 + r_2 - 1$ where $r_1$ and $r_2$ are the numbers of real and pairs of complex embeddings. When $K$ is Galois with…
