Rudnick–Sarnak–Heath-Brown conjecture on pair correlation of quadratic fractional parts

Let βotin?\beta otin\frac{\text{?}}{} be an irrational real number. The pair correlation of the fractional parts of n2βn^2\beta is called Poissonian when it has the limiting statistics of a Poisson process. A real number β\beta is Diophantine if it satisfies the Diophantine approximation condition intended in the source.

Rudnick–Sarnak–Heath-Brown conjecture. Assume β\beta is Diophantine. Then the pair correlation for the fractional parts of n2βn^2\beta is Poissonian.

The conjecture seeks an explicit class of β\beta for which Poissonian pair correlation holds; the source notes that the result is known for almost all β\beta, but no specific β\beta was known in the stated context.
