Title: Convenient Coordinates
Abstract: We discuss the method of picking a convenient coordinate system adapted to vector fields. Let X_1,...,X_q be either real or complex C^1 vector fields. We discuss the question of when there is a coordinate system in which the vector fields are smoother (e.g., C^m, or C^\infty, or real analytic). By answering this in a quantitative way, we obtain coordinate charts which can be used as generalized scaling maps. When the vector fields are real this is joint work with Stovall, and continues in the line of quantitative sub-Riemannian geometry initiated by Nagel, Stein, and Wainger. When the vector fields are complex one obtains a geometry with more structure which can be thought of as "sub-Hermitian".

Quadratic forms and the semiclassical eigenfunction hypothesis
Let [math]\displaystyle{ Q(X) }[/math] be any integral primitive positive definite quadratic form in [math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math] variables, where [math]\displaystyle{ k\geq4 }[/math], and discriminant [math]\displaystyle{ D }[/math]. For any integer [math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math], we give an upper bound on the number of integral solutions of [math]\displaystyle{ Q(X)=n }[/math] in terms of [math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math], [math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math], and [math]\displaystyle{ D }[/math]. As a corollary, we prove a conjecture of Lester and Rudnick on the small scale equidistribution of almost all functions belonging to any orthonormal basis of a given eigenspace of the Laplacian on the flat torus [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb{T}^d }[/math] for [math]\displaystyle{ d\geq 5 }[/math]. This conjecture is motivated by the work of Berry\cite{Berry, Michael} on semiclassical eigenfunction hypothesis.
