Schur-type arithmetic progression conjecture for primes
Let be a positive integer and color all primes with colors. For an integer , consider monochromatic primes .
Schur-type conjecture. For every , there exist monochromatic primes such that form an arithmetic progression with common difference .
This conjecture extends the proved Schur-type theorem for primes, which gives monochromatic primes satisfying , and is motivated by the Green–Tao theorem on arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions in the primes. Its resolution is not supplied here.
