Spacing statistics for a point scatterer on the cubic three-torus

Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: We study the new eigenvalues of a fixed point interaction on the cubic three-torus. Their mean-one consecutive spacings converge to a probability law independent of the interaction parameter. We characterize this law by the consecutive zeros of a random meromorphic function built from three-squares congruence densities. Its small-gap distribution has the form $s^5Ψ(\log_2(s^{-2}))+o(s^5)$, where $Ψ$ is continuous, positive, and one-periodic. The proof combines periodic mean-square approximation, a weighted Hilbert-transform estimate, and Fourier estimates that retain the interactions between primes.
