A quadratic large sieve inequality over number fields

Number Theory 2012-06-01 v2

Abstract

We formulate and prove a large sieve inequality for quadratic characters over a number field. To do this, we introduce the notion of an n-th order Hecke family. We develop the basic theory of these Hecke families, including versions of the Poisson summation formula.
