Motivic Euler products in motivic statistics

Margaret Bilu and Sean Howe

Vol. 15 (2021), No. 9, 2195–2259
Abstract

We formulate and prove an analog of Poonen’s finite-field Bertini theorem with Taylor conditions that holds in the Grothendieck ring of varieties. This gives a broad generalization of the work of Vakil and Wood, who treated the case of smooth hypersurface sections, and is made possible by the use of motivic Euler products to write down candidate motivic probabilities. As applications, we give motivic analogs of many results in arithmetic statistics that have been proven using Poonen’s sieve, including work of Bucur and Kedlaya on complete intersections and Erman and Wood on semiample Bertini theorems.
