Using the above result we generalize the work of Aka, Einsiedler and Shapira in various directions. For example, we compute the joint distribution of the residue classes modulo q and the properly normalized orthogonal lattices of primitive integral vectors lying on the level set -(x12+x22+x32)+x42=Ndocumentclass12pt{minimal} usepackage{amsmath} usepackage{wasysym} usepackage{amsfonts} usepackage{amssymb} usepackage{amsbsy} usepackage{mathrsfs} usepackage{upgreek} setlength{oddsidemargin}{-69pt} begin{document}$$-(x_{1}^{2}+x_{2}^{2}+x_{3}^{2})+x_{4}^{2}=N$$end{document} as N→∞documentclass12pt{minimal} usepackage{amsmath} usepackage{wasysym} usepackage{amsfonts} usepackage{amssymb} usepackage{amsbsy} usepackage{mathrsfs} usepackage{upgreek} setlength{oddsidemargin}{-69pt} begin{document}$$Nrightarrow infty $$end{document}, where the normalized orthogonal lattices sit in a submanifold of the moduli space of rank-3 discrete subgroups of R4documentclass12pt{minimal} usepackage{amsmath} usepackage{wasysym} usepackage{amsfonts} usepackage{amssymb} usepackage{amsbsy} usepackage{mathrsfs} usepackage{upgreek} setlength{oddsidemargin}{-69pt} begin{document}$${mathbb {R}}^{4}$$end{document}.
