Abstract
We study the fine-scale (Formula presented.) -mass distribution of toral Laplace eigenfunctions with respect to random position in two and three dimensions. In two dimensions, under certain flatness assumptions on the Fourier coefficients and generic restrictions on energy levels, both the asymptotic shape of the variance is determined and the limiting Gaussian law is established in the optimal Planck-scale regime. In three dimensions the asymptotic behaviour of the variance is analysed in a more restrictive scenario (“Bourgain's eigenfunctions”). Other than the said precise results, lower and upper bounds are proved for the variance under more general flatness assumptions on the Fourier coefficients.
