Abstract: 

Koksma’s equidistribution theorem in 1935 states that for Lebesgue almost every x > 1, the fractional parts of the geometric progression (xn)n≥1are equidistributed modulo one. We prove that for almost every x∈ ℚ p, the field of p-adic numbers, the integral part of (xn) are equidistributed in the ring ℤp of p-adic integers.
