We prove the expected lower bound for those groups. For the upper bounds we show that there is a connection to class groups of quadratic number fields. The asymptotic behavior of those class groups is predicted by the Cohen--Lenstra heuristics. Under the assumption of this heuristic we are able to prove the expected upper bounds.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-12-13T10:46:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11R45", "11R29", "11R32", "12F12" ], "keywords": [ "cohen-lenstra heuristics", "class groups", "quadratic number fields", "expected upper bounds", "odd prime" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2005math.....12260K" } } }
