Abstract
Denote by h the (absolute, logarithmic) Weil height. The celebrated Bilu's equidistribution theorem claims that for any sequence (x_n)_n of algebraic numbers satisfying [Q(x_n):Q] —> +\infty and h(x_n) --> 0, the sequence of Galois orbits of x_n is equidistributed around the unit circle.
Following a method due to Mignotte, I will explain why every sequence (S_n)_n of finite subsets of algebraic numbers satisfying # S_n —> +\infty and \sum_{\alpha \in S_n} (h(\alpha)/ # S_n) —> 0 is equidistributed "in average" around the unit circle. This is joint work with Amoroso.
