Distribution of prime ideals (11R44)

Abstract: We establish an unconditional effective Chebotarev density theorem that improves uniformly over the well-known result of Lagarias and Odlyzko. As a consequence, we give a new asymptotic form of the Chebotarev density theorem that can count much smaller primes with arbitrary log-power savings, even in the case where a Landau-Siegel zero is present. Our main theorem interpolates the strongest unconditional upper bound for the least prime ideal with a given Artin symbol as well as the Chebotarev analogue of the Brun-Titchmarsh theorem proved by the authors. We also present a new application of our main result that exhibits considerable gains over earlier versions of the Chebotarev density theorem. If $f$ is a positive definite primitive binary quadratic form then we count lattice points $(u,v)inmathbb{Z}^2$ such that $f(u,v)$ is prime and $u,v$ have no prime factors $leqz$ with uniformity in $z$ and the discriminant of $f$.

Review text

Let $L/F$ be a Galois extension of algebraic number fields with Galois group $G$. For a conjugacy class $C \subset G$, let $\pi_C(x)$ denote the counting function of the unramified prime ideals of $F$ with Artin symbol equal to $C$. The asymptotic expansion of $\pi_C(x)$ depends on the existence of a possible Landau-Siegel zero $\beta_1$ of the Dedekind zeta function of $L$. In Theorem 1.1, the authors present a unified formula for $\pi_C(x)$ with absolute and effective constants, where the error term is independent of the existence of $\beta_1$. This generalizes a result of \textit{V. Kumar Murty} [Lond. Math. Soc. Lect. Note Ser. 247, 287--308 (1997; Zbl 0988.11018)] as well as results of the authors [Int. Math. Res. Not. 2018, No. 16, 4991--5027 (2018; Zbl 1447.11115)]. Finally, they give an application for the counting function of primes represented by a positive definite binary quadratic form.
