Equidistribution in Number Theory, An Introduction

Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on Equidistribution in Number Theory, Montreal, Canada, 11-22 July 2005
This set of lectures provides a structured introduction to the concept of equidistribution in number theory. This concept is of growing importance in many areas, including cryptography, zeros of L-functions, Heegner points, prime number theory, the theory of quadratic forms, and the arithmetic aspects of quantum chaos.

The volume brings together leading researchers from a range of fields who reveal fascinating links between seemingly disparate areas.
