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 this article we study the pair correlation statistic for higher dimensional sequences. We show that for any $d\geq 2$, strictly increasing sequences $(a_n^{(1)}),\ldots, (a_n^{(d)})$ of natural numbers have metric Poissonian pair…

A well known result in the theory of uniform distribution modulo one (which goes back to Fej\'er and Csillag) states that the fractional parts $\{n^\alpha\}$ of the sequence $(n^\alpha)_{n\ge1}$ are uniformly distributed in the unit…

A classical theorem of Koksma states that for Lebesgue almost every $x>1$ the sequence $(x^n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ is uniformly distributed modulo one. In the present paper we extend Koksma's theorem to the pair correlation setting. More…

It is shown that short-range correlations between large prime numbers (~10^5 and larger) have a Poissonian nature. Correlation length \zeta = 4.5 for the primes ~10^5 and it is increasing logarithmically according to the prime number…

This study is motivated by a series of recent papers that show that, if a given deterministic sequence in the unit interval has a Poisson pair correlation function, then the sequence is uniformly distributed. Analogous results have been…

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 prove that any increasing sequence of real numbers with average gap $1$ and Poisson pair correlations has some gap that is at least $3/2+10^{-9}$. This improves upon a result of Aistleitner, Blomer, and Radziwill.

We define a notion of Poissonian pair correlation (PPC) for Riemannian manifolds without boundary and prove that PPC implies uniform distribution in this setting. This extends earlier work by Grepstad and Larcher, Aistleitner, Lachmann, and…

A sequence $(x_n)$ on the torus is said to have Poissonian pair correlations if $\# \{1\le i\neq j\le N: |x_i-x_j| \le s/N\}=2sN(1+o(1))$ for all reals $s>0$, as $N\to \infty$. It is known that, if $(x_n)$ has Poissonian pair correlations,…

Given an infinite subset $\mathcal A \subseteq\mathbb N$, let $A$ denote its smallest $N$ elements. There is a rich and growing literature on the question of whether for typical $\alpha\in[0,1]$, the pair correlations of the set $\alpha A…

In this article, we examine the Poissonian pair correlation (PPC) statistic for higher-dimensional real sequences. Specifically, we demonstrate that for $d\geq 3$, almost all $(\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_d) \in \mathbb{R}^d$, the sequence…

We show for sequences $\left(a_{n}\right)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ of distinct positive integers with maximal order of additive energy, that the sequence $\left(\left\{a_{n} \alpha\right\}\right)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ does not have Poissonian pair…

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 $m\geq 3$, we prove that $(\alpha n^\theta \mod 1)_{n>0}$ has Poissonian $m$-point correlation for all $\alpha>0$, provided $\theta<\theta_m$, where $\theta_m$ is an explicit bound which goes to $0$ as $m$ increases. This work builds on…
