Let $n \geq 6$ be an integer. We prove that the number of number fields with Galois group $A_n$ and absolute discriminant at most $X$ is asymptotically at least $X^{1/8 + O(1/n)}$. For $n \geq 8$ this improves upon the previously best known…

Let $N_n(X)$ denote the number of degree $n$ number fields with discriminant bounded by $X$. In this note, we improve the best known upper bounds on $N_n(X)$, finding that $N_n(X) = O(X^{ c (\log n)^2})$ for an explicit constant $c$.

Let $N(5,D_5,X)$ be the number of quintic number fields whose Galois closure has Galois group $D_5$ and whose discriminant is bounded by $X$. By a conjecture of Malle, we expect that $N(5,D_5,X) \sim C X^{1/2}$ for some constant $C$. The…

We study the number of degree $n$ number fields with discriminant bounded by $X$. In this article, we improve an upper bound due to Schmidt on the number of such fields that was previously the best known upper bound for $6 \leq n \leq 94$.

Let $n$ be a positive integer and $G$ be a transitive permutation subgroup of $S_n$. Given a number field $K$ with $[K:\mathbb{Q}]=n$, we let $\widetilde{K}$ be its Galois closure over $\mathbb{Q}$ and refer to…

In this paper we improve the upper bound of the number $N_{K, n}(X)$ of degree $n$ extensions of a number field $K$ with absolute discriminant bounded by $X$. This is achieved by giving a short $\mathcal{O}_K$-basis of an order of an…

We give an upper bound on the number of extensions of a fixed number field of prescribed degree and discriminant less than X; these bounds improve on work of Schmidt. We also prove various related results, such as lower bounds for the…

Let $\mathcal{F}_n(X;G)$ denote the set of number fields of degree $n$ with absolute discriminant no larger than $X$ and Galois group $G$. This set is known to be finite for any finite permutation group $G$ and $X \geq 1$. In this paper, we…

Let $k$ be a number field. We provide an asymptotic formula for the number of Galois extensions of $k$ with absolute discriminant bounded by some $X \geq 1$, as $X\to\infty$. We also provide an asymptotic formula for the closely related…

We prove an improvement on Schmidt's upper bound on the number of number fields of degree $n$ and absolute discriminant less than X for $6 \leq n \leq 94$. We carry this out by improving and applying a uniform bound on the number of monic…

Let $G$ be a Frobenius group with an abelian Frobenius kernel $F$ and let $k$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. We obtain an upper bound for the number of degree $|F|$ algebraic extensions $K/k$ with Galois group $G$ with the norm of…

Counting number fields with prescribed Galois group is an enduring challenge in arithmetic statistics. Using the determinant method, we provide an upper bound for even groups, which is new in some cases.

A conjecture of Malle predicts the quantity of number fields with bounded discriminant of given Galois group. We present a lower bound matching this in the case of quartic fields with Galois group $A_4$.

A folklore conjecture asserts the existence of a constant $c_n > 0$ such that $\#\mathcal{F}_n(X) \sim c_n X$ as $X\to \infty$, where $\mathcal{F}_n(X)$ is the set of degree $n$ extensions $K/\mathbb{Q}$ with discriminant bounded by $X$.…

For every odd integer $n \geq 3$, we prove that there exist infinitely many number fields of degree $n$ and associated Galois group $S_n$ whose class number is odd. To do so, we study the class groups of families of number fields of degree…

Let $\ell\geq 5$ be a prime number and $\mathbb{F}_\ell$ denote the finite field with $\ell$ elements. We show that the number of Galois extensions of the rationals with Galois group isomorphic to $GL_2(\mathbb{F}_\ell)$ and absolute…

An algorithmic upper bound on the domination number $\gamma$ of graphs in terms of the order $n$ and the minimum degree $\delta$ is proved. It is demonstrated that the bound improves best previous bounds for any $5\le \delta \le 50$. In…

We exhibit, for n at least 5, infinitely many quadratic number fields admitting unramified degree n extensions with prescribed signature whose normal closures have Galois group A_n. This generalizes a result of Uchida and Yamamoto, which…

The problem of analyzing the number of number field extensions $L/K$ with bounded (relative) discriminant has been the subject of renewed interest in recent years, with significant advances made by Schmidt, Ellenberg-Venkatesh, Bhargava,…

In 2018, Legrand and Paran proved a weaker form of the Inverse Galois Problem for all Hilbertian fields and all finite groups: that is, there exist possibly non-Galois extensions over given Hilbertian base field with given finite group as…
