Abstract: Let denote the repartition of the -level correlation measure of the finite set of directions , where is the fixed point and is an integer lattice point in the square . We show that the average of the pair correlation repartition over in a fixed disc converges as . More precisely we prove, for every and , the estimate
We also prove that for each individual point , the -level correlation diverges at any point as , and we give an explicit lower bound for the rate of divergence.
