Abstract
In 2012, for any integer , Kedlaya constructed an infinite class of monic irreducible polynomials of degree with integer coefficients having squarefree discriminants. Such polynomials are necessarily monogenic. Further, by extending Kedlaya's approach, for any odd prime , Jones constructed a class of degree polynomials with non-squarefree discriminants. In this article, using a similar method provided by Jones, we present another infinite class of monogenic polynomials of degree with non-squarefree discriminants, where is a prime of the form , with and being prime numbers. In addition to this we present a class of non-monogenic polynomials whose coefficients are Sterling numbers of the first kind.
