General theory of distribution modulo (1) (11K06) Gauss and Kloosterman sums; generalizations (11L05)

Abstract: In this paper, we consider the distribution of the continuous paths of Dirichlet character sums modulo prime $q$ on the complex plane. We also find a limiting distribution as $qightarrowinfty$ using Steinhaus random multiplicative functions, stating properties of this random process. This is motivated by Kowalski and Sawin's work on Kloosterman paths.
