We show that sequences of the form $\alpha n^{\theta} \pmod{1}$ with $\alpha > 0$ and $0 < \theta < \tfrac{43}{117} = \tfrac{1}{3} + 0.0341 \ldots$ have Poissonian pair correlation. This improves upon the previous result by Lutsko,…

We consider Poissonian pair correlations (PPC) for uniformly distributed sequences of random numbers with a dependency structure. More specifically, we treat two classes of dependent random variables which have widely been studied in the…

In any dimension $d \geq 2$, there is no known example of a low-discrepancy sequence which possess Poisssonian pair correlations. This is in some sense rather surprising, because low-discrepancy sequences always have $\beta$-Poissonian pair…

We study the notion of inhomogeneous Poissonian pair correlations, proving several properties that show similarities and differences to its homogeneous counterpart. In particular, we show that sequences with inhomogeneous Poissonian pair…

In this article we prove that if the additive energy of a strictly increasing sequence $(a_n)$ of natural numbers is less than $N^3/(\log N)^C$ for some $C\geq13.155$, then $(\{a_n\alpha\})$ has Poissonian pair correlation for almost all…

Niederreiter and Halton sequences are two prominent classes of multi-dimensional sequences which are widely used in practice for numerical integration methods because of their excellent distribution qualities. In this paper, we show that…

Although a generic uniformly distributed sequence has Poissonian pair correlations, only one explicit example has been found up to now. Additionally, it is even known that many classes of uniformly distributed sequences, like van der Corput…

The classical Poisson theorem says that if $\xi_1,\xi_2,...$ are i.i.d. 0--1 Bernoulli random variables taking on 1 with probability $p_n\equiv \la/n$ then the sum $S_n=\sum_{i=1}^n\xi_i$ is asymptotically in $n$ Poisson distributed with…

Elkies and McMullen [Duke Math.J.~123 (2004) 95--139] have shown that the gaps between the fractional parts of \sqrt n for n=1,\ldots,N, have a limit distribution as N tends to infinity. The limit distribution is non-standard and differs…

Let $\left(a_{n}\right)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be a lacunary sequence of positive real numbers. Rudnick and Technau showed that for almost all $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}$, the pair correlation of $\left(\alpha a_{n}\right)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ mod 1 is…

Let $\{X_{k,i};i\geq 1,k\geq 1\}$ be an array of i.i.d. random variables and let $\{p_n;n\geq 1\}$ be a sequence of positive integers such that $n/p_n$ is bounded away from 0 and $\infty$. For $W_n=\max_{1\leq i<j\leq…

We establish new conditions under which a sequence of real numbers has metric Poissonian pair correlation. These conditions strengthen results of Aistleitner, El-Baz and Munsch (2021) and resolve one of their open problems under a mild…

We give a survey on the concept of Poissonian pair correlation (PPC) of sequences in the unit interval, on existing and recent results and we state a list of open problems. Moreover, we present and discuss a quite recent multi-dimensional…

Fix $\alpha,\theta >0$, and consider the sequence $(\alpha n^{\theta} \mod 1)_{n\ge 1}$. Since the seminal work of Rudnick--Sarnak (1998), and due to the Berry--Tabor conjecture in quantum chaos, the fine-scale properties of these dilated…

The investigation of the pair correlation statistics of sequences was initially motivated by questions concerning quasi-energy-spectra of quantum systems. However, the subject has been developed far beyond its roots in mathematical physics,…

The pair correlation statistic is an important concept in real uniform distribution theory. Therefore, sequences in the unit interval with (weak) Poissonian pair correlations have attracted a lot of attention in recent time. The aim of this…

Let $\left(a_{n}\right)_{n}$ be a strictly increasing sequence of positive integers, denote by $A_{N}=\left\{ a_{n}:\,n\leq N\right\} $ its truncations, and let $\alpha\in\left[0,1\right]$. We prove that if the additive energy…
