Remarks on the Pair Correlation Statistic of Kronecker Sequences and Lattice Point Counting

In this short note, we reformulate the task of calculating the pair correlation statistics of a Kronecker sequence as a lattice point counting problem. This can be done analogously to the lattice based approach which was used to (re-)prove the famous three gap property for Kronecker sequences. We show that recently developed lattice point counting techniques can then be applied to derive that a certain class of Kronecker sequences have $beta$-pair correlations for all $0 < beta < 1$.
