$p$-adic Directions of Primitive Vectors
Résumé
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 $\mathbb{Z}^{2}$ points in the $p$-adic unit sphere, as their (real) norm tends to infinity. The proof is via counting lattice points in semi-simple $S$-arithmetic groups.
