Summary

Introduction

For an integer m and a polynomial f (X) ∈ Z[X], we consider the set of fractions. that is, the set of fractions r/m where r runs through all distinct roots of the congruence f (r) ≡ 0(mod m). For an integer m and a polynomial f (X) ∈ Z[X], we consider the set of fractions. Hooley [1] has proved that for any irreducible polynomial f (X) ∈ Z[X], the sequence ᏹ f (X) of all fractions r/m ∈ ᏾m, f taken over all nonnegative integers m ≤ X, that is, ᏹ f (X) =. Is asymptotically uniformly distributed in the [0,1] interval when X → ∞, the bound on the discrepancy of the sequence ᏹ f (X) is rather weak. For quadratic polynomials f a stronger bound on the discrepancy has been obtained using a different method by Hooley [2], see [3, 4] for further references to more recent improvements and applications
