An uncertainty principle for arithmetic sequences

An uncertainty principle for arithmetic sequences

Analytic number theorists usually seek to show that sequences which appear naturally in arithmetic are "well-distributed" in some appropriate sense.In various discrepancy problems, combinatorics researchers have analyzed limitations to equidistribution, as have Fourier analysts when working with the "uncertainty principle".In this article we find that these ideas have a natural …
