In this article we discuss a version of the Chebotarev density for function fields over perfect fields with procyclic absolute Galois groups. Our version of this density theorem differs from other versions in two aspects: we include…

Let $K/F$ be a finite Galois extension of number fields. It is well known that the Tchebotarev density theorem implies that an irreducible, finitely ramified $p$-adic representation $\rho$ of the absolute Galois group of $K$ is determined…

We study the prime numbers that lie in Beatty sequences of the form $\lfloor \alpha n + \beta \rfloor$ and have prescribed algebraic splitting conditions. We prove that the density of primes in both a fixed Beatty sequence and a Chebotarev…

We give a new formula for the Chebotarev densities of Frobenius elements in Galois groups. This formula is given in terms of smallest prime factors $p_{\mathrm{min}}(n)$ of integers $n\geq2$. More precisely, let $C$ be a conjugacy class of…

In this paper we find lower bounds on higher moments of the error term in the Chebotarev density theorem. Inspired by the work of Bella\''{\i}che, we consider general class functions and prove bounds which depend on norms associated to…

Chebyshev observed in a letter to Fuss that there tends to be more primes of the form $4n+3$ than of the form $4n+1$. The general phenomenon, which is referred to as Chebyshev's bias, is that primes tend to be biased in their distribution…

It is well known that the Tchebotarev density theorem implies that an irreducible $\ell$-adic representation $\rho$ of the absolute Galois group of a number field $K$ is determined (up to isomorphism) by the characteristic polynomials of…

Let $L$ be a finite Galois extension of the number field $K$. We unconditionally bound the least prime ideal of $K$ occurring in the Chebotarev Density Theorem as a power of the discriminant of $L$ with an explicit exponent. We also…

Given a nontrivial finite group $G$, we prove the first zero density estimate for families of Dedekind zeta functions associated to Galois extensions $K/\mathbb{Q}$ with $\mathrm{Gal}(K/\mathbb{Q})\cong G$ that does not rely on unproven…

In this article we prove a general theorem which establishes the existence of limiting distributions for a wide class of error terms from prime number theory. As a corollary to our main theorem, we deduce previous results of Wintner (1935),…

We improve the Chebotarev variant of the Brun-Titchmarsh theorem proven by Lagarias, Montgomery, and Odlyzko using the log-free zero density estimate and zero repulsion phenomenon for Hecke L-functions that were recently proved by the…

Let $G$ be a finite group. Let $K/k$ be a Galois extension of number fields with Galois group isomorphic to $G$, and let $C \subseteq \mathrm{Gal}(K/k) \simeq G$ be a conjugacy invariant subset. It is well known that there exists an…

Let $L/K$ be a Galois extension of number fields. The problem of counting the number of prime ideals $\mathfrak p$ of $K$ with fixed Frobenius class in $\mathrm{Gal}(L/K)$ and norm satisfying a congruence condition is considered. We show…

For a number field K and a finite abelian group G, we determine the probabilities of various local completions of a random G-extension of K when extensions are ordered by conductor. In particular, for a fixed prime p of K, we determine the…
