Abstract: We obtain the limiting distribution of the nodal area of random Gaussian Laplace eigenfunctions on mathbbT3=mathbbR3/mathbbZ3 (3-dimensional 'arithmetic random waves'). We prove that, as the multiplicity of the eigenspace goes to infinity, the nodal area converges to a universal, non-Gaussian, distribution. Universality follows from the equidistribution of lattice points on the sphere. Our arguments rely on the Wiener chaos expansion of the nodal area: we show that, analogous to (Marinucci, Peccati, Rossi and Wigman, 2016), the fluctuations are dominated by the fourth-order chaotic component. The proof builds upon recent results in (Benatar and Maffiucci, 2017) that establish an upper bound for the number of non-degenerate correlations of lattice points on the sphere. We finally discuss higher-dimensional extensions of our result.
