Abstract
We consider a determinantal point process on the complex projective space that reduces to the so-called spherical ensemble for complex dimension 1 under identification of the 2-sphere with the Riemann sphere. Through this determinantal point process, we propose a new point processs in odd-dimensional spheres that produces fairly well-distributed points, in the sense that the expected value of the Riesz 2-energy for these collections of points is smaller than all previously known bounds.
