Presentations of Galois groups of unramified extensions of global fields and its predicted distribution
arXiv:2605.14158
Abstract
Motivated by the work of Liu, we study certain canonical quotients of -- the Galois group of the maximal unramified extension of a global field that is split completely at a finite nonempty set of places in -- for -extensions , and prove they have presentations of a particular form. This presentation leads us to the construction of a new random group model as in the work of Liu, Wood, and Zureick-Brown that predicts the distribution of as we vary among -extensions with prescribed local conditions at places in , giving a generalization of the non-abelian Cohen-Lenstra-Martinet Heuristics. The key generalization is that can be an arbitrary global field, while this comes at a cost of introducing a prime-to- condition in addition to avoiding roots of unity, , and the characteristic if is a function field.
