Pairs in discrete lattice orbits with applications to Veech surfaces
Let $\Lambda_1$, $\Lambda_2$ be two discrete orbits under the linear action of a lattice $\Gamma <\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ on the Euclidean plane. We prove a Siegel--Veech-type integral formula for the averages$$\sum_{\mathbf{x}\in\Lambda_1} \sum_{\mathbf{y}\in\Lambda_2} f(\mathbf{x}, \mathbf{y})$$from which we derive new results for the set $S_M$ of holonomy vectors of saddle connections of a Veech surface $M$. This includes an effective count for generic Borel sets with respect to linear transformations, and upper bounds on the number of pairs in $S_M$ with bounded determinant and on the number of pairs in $S_M$ with bounded distance. This last estimate is used in the appendix to prove that for almost every $(\theta,\psi)\in S^1\times S^1$ the translations flows $F_\theta^t$ and $F_\psi^t$ on any Veech surface $M$ are disjoint.
