The frequency conjecture for Bézout coefficients of random integer polynomials
For positive integers , let
where is the maximum of the absolute values of the coefficients of and is its leading coefficient. For coprime integer polynomials , let and denote the integers defined in the paper. Frequency conjecture. For any positive integers and , we have
The conjecture formalizes the observed frequency with which the Bézout-related integers and coincide for randomly chosen coprime integer polynomials; the numerical data in the paper suggest frequencies above , while no proof of the asserted lower bound is given.
