    On the Number of Eisenstein Polynomials of Bounded Height

    Full text link
    We obtain a more precise version of an asymptotic formula of A. Dubickas for the number of monic Eisenstein polynomials of fixed degree dd and of height at most HH, as H→∞H\to \infty. In particular, we give an explicit bound for the error term. We also obtain an asymptotic formula for arbitrary Eisenstein polynomials of height at most HH

    Eisenstein Polynomials over Function Fields

    In this paper we compute the density of monic and non-monic Eisenstein polynomials of fixed degree having entries in an integrally closed subring of a function field over a finite field

    A local to global principle for expected values

    Full text link
    This paper constructs a new local to global principle for expected values over free -modules of finite rank. In our strategy we use the same philosophy as Ekedahl's Sieve for densities, later extended and improved by Poonen and Stoll in their local to global principle for densities. We show that under some additional hypothesis on the system of p-adic subsets used in the principle, one can use p-adic measures also when one has to compute expected values (and not only densities). Moreover, we show that our additional hypotheses are sharp, in the sense that explicit counterexamples exist when any of them is missing. In particular, a system of p-adic subsets that works in the Poonen and Stoll principle is not guaranteed to work when one is interested in expected values instead of densities. Finally, we provide both new applications of the method, and immediate proofs for known results
