An equidistribution theorem on toric varieties
A version of Weyl’s equidistribution theorem states that, for almost all points in the n-dimensional compact torus, the average of the Dirac measures on the powers of the point converges to the normalised Haar measure. We will explore how to generalise this statement to the n-dimensional complex algebraic torus; at this moment, toric varieties will emerge as our saviours, giving us the convergence. Time permitting, I will also discuss possible future directions on finding even more interesting convergences. Based on an ongoing joint work with Farhad Babaee.
