The Sato–Tate conjecture for Frobenius conjugacy classes of K3 surfaces

Let XX be as above, let ii be as above, and let SS be the finite set of bad primes. For each good prime pPSp\in\mathbb P\setminus S, let xpCl(STi(X))x_p\in\mathop{\operatorname{Cl}}(\mathop{\operatorname{ST}}^i(X)) be the conjugacy class of the semisimple part of the Frobenius element. Let π ⁣:STi(X)Cl(STi(X))\pi\colon \mathop{\operatorname{ST}}^i(X)\to\mathop{\operatorname{Cl}}(\mathop{\operatorname{ST}}^i(X)) be the canonical map, and let πμHaar\pi_*\mu_{\operatorname{Haar}} be the pushforward of normalized Haar measure. The Sato–Tate conjecture. The sequence (xp)pPS(x_p)_{p\in\mathbb P\setminus S}, with the good primes ordered normally, is equidistributed with respect to πμHaar\pi_*\mu_{\operatorname{Haar}}; equivalently, the empirical measures converge weakly to this measure. This predicts the distribution of Frobenius conjugacy classes through the compact Sato–Tate group; the statement is presented as a conjecture and is not resolved in the supplied text.
