Popis: In this paper, we consider the moments of the trace of Frobenius of elliptic curves if the trace is restricted to a fixed arithmetic progression. We determine the asymptotic behavior for the ratio of the $(2k+1)$-th moment to the zeroeth moment as the size of the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{p^r}$ goes to infinity. These results follow from similar asymptotic formulas relating sums and moments of Hurwitz class numbers where the sums are restricted to certain arithmetic progressions. As an application, we prove that the distribution of the trace of Frobenius in arithmetic progressions is equidistributed with respect to the Sato--Tate measure.
