Abstract

Let f (x) bea monicpolynomialwith integer coefficients and integers r1,..., rn with 0 ≤ r1 ≤··· ≤ rn <p the n roots of f (x) ≡ 0mod p for a prime p. We proposed conjectures on the distribution of the point (r1/p,...,rn/p) in the previous papers. One aim of this paper is to revise them for a reducible polynomial f (x), and the other is to show that they imply the one-dimensional equidistribution of r1/p,...,rn/p for an irreducible polynomial f (x) by a geometric way.
