Abstract: Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over an algebraically closed, complete, non-archimedean field $K$, and let $mathsfE$ denote the Berkovich analytic space associated to $E/K$. We study the $mu$-equidistribution of finite subsets of $E(K)$, where $mu$ is a certain canonical unit Borel measure on $mathsfE$. Our main result is an inequality bounding the error term when testing against a certain class of continuous functions on $mathsfE$. We then give two applications to elliptic curves over global function fields: we prove a function field analogue of the Szpiro-Ullmo-Zhang equidistribution theorem for small points, and a function field analogue of a result of Baker-Ih-Rumely on the finiteness of $S$-integral torsion points. Both applications are given in explicit quantitative form.
