Michel–Venkatesh mixing conjecture for joint CM packets

Let YY be a complex modular curve. Let PiY\mathcal{P}_i\subset Y be a sequence of packets of CM points, with each Pi\mathcal{P}_i a principal homogeneous space of Pic(Λi)\operatorname{Pic}(\Lambda_i), where Λi\Lambda_i is the CM order of its points. For each iNi\in\mathbb{N}, fix σiPic(Λi)\sigma_i\in\operatorname{Pic}(\Lambda_i) and define

Pijoint={(z,σi.z)zPi}Y×Y.\mathcal{P}_i^\mathrm{joint}=\left\{\left(z,\sigma_i.z\right)\mid z\in\mathcal{P}_i\right\}\subset Y\times Y.

Let μijoint\mu_i^\mathrm{joint} be the normalized counting measure supported on Pijoint\mathcal{P}_i^\mathrm{joint}, and set

Ni=minaΛi invertible idealaσiNra.\mathfrak{N}_i=\min_{\substack{\mathfrak{a}\subseteq\Lambda_i\ \operatorname{invertible\ ideal}\\ \mathfrak{a}\in\sigma_i}}\operatorname{Nr}\mathfrak{a}.

Mixing conjecture. If Nii\mathfrak{N}_i\to_{i\to\infty}\infty, then μijoint\mu_i^\mathrm{joint} converges weak-* to mY×mY\mathrm{m}_Y\times\mathrm{m}_Y.

This conjecture asserts asymptotic independence of two CM points related by the class-group element σi\sigma_i. The paper proves it for toral packets under additional hypotheses, including splitting at two fixed primes and the absence of exceptional Landau–Siegel zeros; the conjecture itself is not established in full generality.
