Conjectureopen
In number theory, Dickson's conjecture is the statement that for a finite set of linear forms with each , there are infinitely many positive integers for which they are all prime, unless there is a congruence condition preventing this. The conjecture is named after Leonard Dickson, who first proposed it in 1904. The case is Dirichlet's theorem. Two other special cases are well-known conjectures: that there are infinitely many twin primes ( and are primes), and that there are infinitely many Sophie Germain primes ( and are primes).
