Equidistribution of zeros of random holomorphic sections

Abstract

We study asymptotic distribution of zeros of random holomorphic sections of high powers of positive line bundles defined over projective homogenous manifolds. We work with a wide class of distributions that includes real and complex Gaussians. As a special case, we obtain asymptotic zero distribution of multivariate complex polynomials given by linear combinations of orthogonal polynomials with i.i.d. random coefficients. Namely, we prove that normalized zero measures of m i.i.d random polynomials, orthonormalized on a regular compact set $K\subset \Bbb{C}^m,$ are almost surely asymptotic to the equilibrium measure of $K$.Comment: Final version incorporates referee comments.
