We prove an explicit log-free zero density estimate and an explicit version of the zero-repulsion phenomenon of Deuring and Heilbronn for Hecke $L$-functions. In forthcoming work of the second author, these estimates will be used to…
Let $G$ be a finite group and let $ram^{t}(G)$ denote the minimal positive integer $n$ such that $G$ can be realized as the Galois group of a tamely ramified extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ ramified only at $n$ finite primes. Let $d(G)$ denote…
We investigate, using the weighted linear sieve, the distribution of almost-primes among the residue classes (mod p) that generate the multiplicative group of reduced residue classes. We are concerned with finding an upper bound for the…
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…
Let $A$ be the product of an abelian variety and a torus over a number field $K$, and let $m$ be a positive integer. If $\alpha \in A(K)$ is a point of infinite order, we consider the set of primes $\mathfrak p$ of $K$ such that the…
Fix $k$ a positive integer, and let $\ell$ be coprime to $k$. Let $p(k,\ell)$ denote the smallest prime equivalent to $\ell \pmod{k}$, and set $P(k)$ to be the maximum of all the $p(k,\ell)$. We seek lower bounds for $P(k)$. In particular,…
The inverse Galois problem is concerned with finding a Galois extension of a field $K$ with given Galois group. In this paper we consider the particular case where the base field is $K=\F_p(t)$. We give a conjectural formula for the minimal…
We generalize results of Alladi, Dawsey, and Sweeting and Woo for Chebotarev densities to general densities of sets of primes. We show that if $K$ is a number field and $S$ is any set of prime ideals with natural density $\delta(S)$ within…
Let $K$ be a number field, and let $G\subset K^\times$ be a finitely generated subgroup. Fix some prime number $\ell$, and consider the set of primes $\mathfrak{p}$ of $K$ satisfying the following property: the reduction of $G$ modulo…
Let K be a number field, and L be a finite normal extension of K with Galois group G. It is known that the number of Frobenius automorphisms corresponding to prime ideals, whose norms are less than x, is equivalent to the logarithmic…
In this paper, we study an asymptotic distribution of sets of primes satisfying certain "linking conditions" in arithmetic topology, namely, conditions given by the Legendre and R\'edei symbols among sets of primes. As our Main Theorem, we…
Gerth generalised Cohen-Lenstra heuristics to the prime $p=2$. He conjectured that for any positive integer $m$, the limit $$ \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{\sum_{0 < D \le X, \atop{ \text{squarefree} }} |{\rm Cl}^2_{\Q(\sqrt{D})}/{\rm…
We introduce a wide class of deterministic subsets of primes of zero relative density and we prove Roth's Theorem in these sets, namely, we show that any subset of them with positive relative upper density contains infinitely many…
Let $C$ be a conjugacy class of $S_n$ and $K$ an $S_n$-field. Let $n_{K,C}$ be the smallest prime which is ramified or whose Frobenius automorphism Frob$_p$ does not belong to $C$. Under some technical conjectures, we compute the average of…
Let $\mathbf{P}$ denote the set of prime numbers and, for an appropriate function $h$, define a set $\mathbf{P}_{h}=\{p\in\mathbf{P}: \exists_{n\in\mathbb{N}}\ p=\lfloor h(n)\rfloor\}$. The aim of this paper is to show that every subset of…
For odd primes $p$, we let $K_p:=\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_p)$ be the $p$th cyclotomic field and let $\omega$ denote its Teichmuller character. For $\alpha>1/2$, we say that an odd prime $p$ is partially regular if the eigenspaces of the $p$-Sylow…
We show that once $\theta>17/30$, every sufficiently long interval $[x,x+x^\theta]$ contains many $k$-term arithmetic progressions of primes, uniformly in the starting point $x$. More precisely, for each fixed $k\ge3$ and $\theta>17/30$,…
We study certain aspects of the Selberg sieve, in particular when sifting by rather thin sets of primes. We derive new results for the lower bound sieve suited especially for this setup and we apply them in particular to give a new…
Let $k$ be an integer which is the difference between prime numbers infinitely often. It is known that there are infinitely many such $k$ and, in this paper, we give a new unconditional proof that these $k$ have positive density and improve…
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…
