Disjointness of the Möbius Transformation and Möbius Function

We study the distribution of the sequence of elements of the discrete dynamical system generated by the Möbius transformation x ↦ ( a x + b ) / ( c x + d ) over a finite field of p elements. Motivated by a recent conjecture of P. Sarnak, we obtain nontrivial estimates of exponential sums with such s...

Zusammenfassung:We study the distribution of the sequence of elements of the discrete dynamical system generated by the Möbius transformation x ↦ ( a x + b ) / ( c x + d ) over a finite field of p elements. Motivated by a recent conjecture of P. Sarnak, we obtain nontrivial estimates of exponential sums with such sequences that imply that trajectories of this dynamical system are disjoined with the Möbius function.
