On Mertens-Ces\`aro Theorem for Number Fields

Number Theory 2019-02-13 v5

Abstract

Let KK be a number field with ring of integers O\mathcal O. After introducing a suitable notion of density for subsets of O\mathcal O, generalizing that of natural density for subsets of Z\mathbb Z, we show that the density of the set of coprime mm-tuples of algebraic integers is 1/ζK(m){1/\zeta_K(m)}, where ζK\zeta_K is the Dedekind zeta function of KK.
