An error estimate for counting $S_3$-sextic number fields

Number Theory 2013-10-02 v2

Abstract

In this note, we prove a power-saving remainder term for the function counting S3S_3-sextic number fields. We also give a prediction on the second main term. We also present numerical data on counting functions for S3S_3-sextic number fields. Our data indicates that our prediction is likely to be correct, and it also suggests the existence of additional lower order terms which we have not yet been able to explain.
