Statistics of $K$-groups modulo $p$ for the ring of integers of a varying quadratic number field


Abstract in English

For each odd prime $p$, we conjecture the distribution of the $p$-torsion subgroup of $K_{2n}(mathcal{O}_F)$ as $F$ ranges over real quadratic fields, or over imaginary quadratic fields. We then prove that the average size of the $3$-torsion subgroup of $K_{2n}(mathcal{O}_F)$ is as predicted by this conjecture.
