Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, Montgomery established results concerning the pair correlation of zeros of the Riemann zeta function. Rudnick and Sarnak extended these results for all level correlations of automorphic $L$-functions. We discover surfaces associated with the zeros of automorphic $L$-functions. In the case of pair correlation, the surface displays Gaussian behavior. For triple correlation, these structures exhibit characteristics of the Laplace and Chi-squared distributions, revealing an unexpected phase transition. This is joint work with Debmalya Basakand Alexandru Zaharescu.
