Cohen-Lenstra heuristics and bilinear pairings in the presence of roots of unity.

2020 
Let $L/K$ be a quadratic extension of global fields. We study Cohen-Lenstra heuristics for the $\ell$-part of the relative class group $G_{L/K} := \textrm{Cl}(L/K)$ when $K$ contains $\ell^n$th roots of unity. While the moments of a conjectural distribution in this case had previously been described, no method to calculate the distribution given the moments was known. We resolve this issue by introducing new invariants associated to the class group, $\psi_{L/K}$ and $\omega_{L/K},$ and study the distribution of $(G_{L/K}, \psi_{L/K}, \omega_{L/K})$ using a linear random matrix model. Using this linear model, we calculate the distribution (including our new invariants) in the function field case, and then make local adjustments at the primes lying over $\ell$ and $\infty$ to make a conjecture in the number field case, which agrees with some numerical experiments.
