Positive density of integer polynomials with some prescribed properties

Number Theory 2015-09-08 v2

Abstract

In this paper, we show that various kinds of integer polynomials with prescribed properties of their roots have positive density. For example, we prove that almost all integer polynomials have exactly one or two roots with maximal modulus. We also show that for any positive integer nn and any set of nn distinct points symmetric with respect to the real line, there is a positive density of integer polynomials of degree nn, height at most HH and Galois group SnS_n whose roots are close to the given nn points.
