Motivated by the question of whether a random polynomial with integer coefficients is likely to be irreducible, we study the probability that a monic polynomial with integer coefficients has a low-degree factor over the integers, which is…

It is known that random monic integral polynomials of bounded degree $d$ and integral coefficients distributed uniformly and independently in $[-H,H]$ are irreducible over $\mathbb{Z}$ with probability tending to $1$ as $H\to \infty$. In…

The goal of this paper is to prove that a random polynomial with i.i.d. random coefficients taking values uniformly in $\{1,\ldots, 210\}$ is irreducible with probability tending to $1$ as the degree tends to infinity. Moreover, we prove…

We study two polynomial counting questions in arithmetic statistics via a combination of Fourier analytic and arithmetic methods. First, we obtain new quantitative forms of Hilbert's Irreducibility Theorem for degree $n$ polynomials $f$…

We consider random polynomials with independent identically distributed coefficients with a fixed law. Assuming the Riemann hypothesis for Dedekind zeta functions, we prove that such polynomials are irreducible and their Galois groups…

In a recent paper, Bary-Soroker, Koukoulopoulos and Kozma proved that when $A$ is a random monic polynomial of $\mathbb{Z}[X]$ of deterministic degree $n$ with coefficients $a_j$ drawn independently according to measures $\mu_j,$ then $A$…

We show that $0,1$-polynomials of high degree and few terms are irreducible with high probability. Formally, let $k\in\mathbb{N}$ and $F(x)=1+\sum_{i=1}^kx^{n_i}$, where $ 0<n_1<\cdots<n_k\leq N. $ Then we show that…
