Abstract

Following S\"odergren, we consider a collection of random variables on the space XnX_n of unimodular lattices in dimension nn: Normalizations of the angles between the N=N(n)N = N(n) shortest vectors in a random unimodular lattice, and the volumes of spheres with radii equal to the lengths of these vectors. We investigate the expected values of certain functions evaluated at these random variables in the regime where NN tends to infinity with nn at the rate N=o(n1/6)N = o \left( n^{1/6} \right). Our main result is that as nn \longrightarrow \infty, these random variables exhibit a joint Poissonian and Gaussian behaviour.
