Using a standard definition of fractional powers on the universal cover $\exp:S\to \mathbb{C}^*$ seen as an infinite helicoid embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$, we study the statistics of pairs from the countable family $\{n^\alpha \, : \, n \in…

For a real-valued sequence $(x_n)_{n=1}^\infty$, denote by $S_N(\ell)$ the number of its first $N$ fractional parts lying in a random interval of size $\ell:=L/N$, where $L=o(N)$ as $N\to\infty$. We study the variance of $S_N(\ell)$ (the…

It has been known since Vinogradov that, for irrational $\alpha$, the sequence of fractional parts $\{\alpha p\}$ is equidistributed in $\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$ as $p$ ranges over primes. There is a natural second-order equidistribution…

The ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^2)$ coefficient of the energy-energy correlation function (EEC) has been calculated by four groups with differing results. This discrepancy has lead to some confusion over how to measure the strong coupling constant…

Z. Rudnick and P. Sarnak have proved that the pair correlation for the fractional parts of $n^2 \alpha$ is Poissonian for almost all $\alpha$. However, they were not able to find a specific $\alpha$ for which it holds. We show that the…

Let $x(n):=\alpha n^d \mod 1$ for integer $d >1$ and non-zero real $\alpha$. We show that $\{x(n)\}_{n>0}$ has Poissonian $\ell$-point correlations for almost all choices of $\alpha$ when $d$ is large (depending on $\ell$). This falls in…

Let $(x_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence on the torus $\mathbb{T}$ (normalized to length 1). A sequence $(x_n)$ is said to have Poissonian pair correlation if, for all $s>0$, $$ \lim_{N \rightarrow \infty}{ \frac{1}{N} \# \left\{ 1 \leq m…

Let $\{ a(x) \}_{x=1}^{\infty}$ be a positive, real-valued, lacunary sequence. This note shows that the pair correlation function of the fractional parts of the dilations $\alpha a(x)$ is Poissonian for Lebesgue almost every $\alpha\in…

We say that a sequence $\{x_n\}_{n \geq 1}$ in $[0,1)$ has Poissonian pair correlations if \begin{equation*} \lim_{N \rightarrow \infty} \frac{1}{N} \# \left\{ 1 \leq l \neq m \leq N \, : \, \left\lVert x_l-x_m \right\rVert < \frac{s}{N}…

This work is an extension of a previous publication [1] where we fitted the strong coupling $\alpha_s$ together with the non-perturbative parameter $\alpha_0$ from event-shape and jet-shape distributions using power corrections computed in…

Let $A\subset [1,N]$ be a set of positive integers with $|A|\gg \sqrt N$. We show that if avoids about $p/2$ residue classes modulo $p$ for each prime $p$, the $A$ must correlate additively with the squares $S=\{n^2:1\leq n\leq \sqrt N\}$,…

A sequence $(x_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ on the torus $\mathbb{T} \cong [0,1]$ is said to exhibit Poissonian pair correlation if the local gaps behave like the gaps of a Poisson random variable, i.e. $$ \lim_{N \rightarrow \infty}{ \frac{1}{N} \#…
