Two Families of Monogenic S₄ Quartic Number Fields

Consider the integral polynomials $f_{a,b}(x)=x^4+ax+b$ and $g_{c,d}(x)=x^4+cx^3+d$. Suppose $f_{a,b}(x)$ and $g_{c,d}(x)$ are irreducible, $b\mid a$, and the integers $b$, $d$, $256d-27c^4$, and $\dfrac{256b^3-27a^4}{\gcd(256b^3,27a^4)}$ are all square-free. Using the Montes algorithm, we show that a root of $f_{a,b}(x)$ or $g_{c,d}(x)$ defines a monogenic extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ and serves as a generator for a power integral basis of the ring of integers. In fact, we show monogeneity for slightly more general families. Further, we obtain lower bounds on the density of polynomials generating monogenic $S_4$ fields within the families $f_{b,b}(x)$ and $g_{1,d}(x)$.
