Abstract

The distribution on the torus ℝ/ℤ of a set of fractions of the form

(formula here)

is investigated, where q is a large integer, m is the inverse of m modulo q, R(x) is a rational function defined modulo q, and [Uscr ], [Mscr ], [Nscr ] are subsets of {1,…,q}. Under some natural assumptions, it is shown that the set [Rscr ] is uniformly distributed on ℝ/ℤ.
