Abstract
The most important analytic method for handling equidistribution questions about rational points on algebraic varieties is undoubtedly the Hardy– Littlewood circle method. There are a number of good texts available on the circle method, but the reader may particularly wish to study the books (Davenport, 2005) and (Vaughan, 1997).
