Malle's conjecture for nonic Heisenberg extensions

Abstract: In 2002 Malle conjectured an asymptotic formula for the number of $G$-extensions of a number field $K$ with discriminant bounded by $X$. In this talk I will discuss recent joint work with Etienne Fouvry on this conjecture. Our main result proves Malle's conjecture in the special case of nonic Heisenberg extensions.
