Abstract

We show that a positive proportion of quartic fields are not monogenic, despite having no local obstruction to being monogenic. Our proof builds on the corresponding result for cubic fields that we obtained in a previous work. Along the way, we also prove that a positive proportion of quartic rings of integers do not arise as the invariant order of an integral binary quartic form despite having no local obstruction.
