Abstract

Let f (x) be a monic polynomial in Z[x] with roots α 1 , . . . , α n. We point out the importance of linear relations among 1, α 1 , . . . , α n over rationals with respect to the distribution of local roots of f modulo a prime. We formulate it as a conjectural uniform distribution in some sense, which elucidates data in previous papers.


Keywords

distribution, polynomial, roots modulo a prime.
