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…
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…
We examine a property of sequences called Poissonian pair correlations with parameter $0\leqslant \beta \leqslant 1$ (abbreviated as $\beta$-PPC). We prove that when $\beta<1,$ the property of $\beta$-PPC, also known as weak Poissonian…
The aim of the present article is to introduce a concept which allows to generalise the notion of Poissonian pair correlation, a second-order equidistribution property, to higher dimensions. Roughly speaking, in the one-dimensional setting,…
A generic uniformly distributed sequence $(x_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ in $[0,1)$ possesses Poissonian pair correlations (PPC). Vice versa, it has been proven that a sequence with PPC is uniformly distributed. Grepstad and Larcher gave an…
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. $$ \lim_{N \rightarrow \infty}{ \frac{1}{N} \#…
A generic uniformly distributed random sequence on the unit interval has Poissonian pair correlations. At the same time, there are only very few explicitly known examples of sequences with this property. Moreover, many types of…
In this article, we examine the Poissonian pair correlation (PPC) statistic for higher-dimensional real sequences. Specifically, we demonstrate that for $d\geq 3$, almost all $(\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_d) \in \mathbb{R}^d$, the sequence…
Fix $\alpha,\theta >0$, and consider the sequence $(\alpha n^{\theta} \mod 1)_{n\ge 1}$. Since the seminal work of Rudnick--Sarnak (1998), and due to the Berry--Tabor conjecture in quantum chaos, the fine-scale properties of these dilated…
Poissonian pair correlations have sparked interest within the mathematical community, because of their number theoretic properties, and their connections to quantum physics and probability theory, particularly uniformly distributed random…
The pair correlation is a localized statistic for sequences in the unit interval. Pseudo-random behavior with respect to this statistic is called Poissonian behavior. The metric theory of pair correlations of sequences of the form $(a_n…
Let $(x_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence on the torus $\mathbb{T}$ (normalized to length 1). A sequence $(x_n)$ is said to have Poissonian pair correlation if, for all $s>0$, $$ \lim_{N \rightarrow \infty}{ \frac{1}{N} \# \left\{ 1 \leq m…
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…
For $0<\theta<1$, we show that for almost all $\alpha$, the pair correlation function of the sequence of fractional parts of $\{\alpha n^\theta:n\geq 1 \}$ is Poissonian.
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}…
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…
M. Levin defined a real number $x$ that satisfies that the sequence of the fractional parts of $(2^n x)_{n\geq 1}$ are such that the first $N$ terms have discrepancy $O((\log N)^2/ N)$, which is the smallest discrepancy known for this kind…
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…
$k$-level correlation is a local statistic of sequences modulo 1, describing the local spacings of $k$-tuples of elements. For $k = 2$ this is also known as pair correlation. We show that there exists a well spaced increasing sequence of…
