“…The application to the 3-part of the class group of quadratic fields is a special case of our application. More generally, the principle also makes correct predictions with infinitely many local conditions for quadratic, S 3 cubic, S 4 quartic, S 5 quintic fields [Bha14], and abelian [FLN15] fields with local conditions at infinitely many primes such that for sufficiently large primes all unramified and minimally ramified local extensions are allowed (in the abelian case excepting local conditions that are never satisfied; see also [BST13,TT13] [Tür15] both suggest ways to correct Malle's conjecture, and in particular suggest that it should still hold if we do not count extensions with nontrivial subfields that are subfields of certain cyclotomic fields. First, we note that the only admissible subgroup of C S 2 is D ⊂ C S 2 (with C → C × C as a → (a, −a)), so have not above applied the Malle-Bhargava principle in the cases of known counter-examples.…”
