| The Turán sieve and probabilistic Galois theory |
We introduce the Turán sieve and apply it to the probabilistic
Galois theory problem in both the rational and the functional cases.
More precisely, we estimate the number of polynomials of degree nand
height 
whose Galois group is a proper subgroup of Sn.
