Moree's density formula for polynomial Artin primes

About 13 years old · traced to

Let f(x)∈Z[x]f(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x] produce infinitely many primes, and let gg be a square-free integer such that all but finitely many primes produced by f(x)f(x) remain inert in Q(g)\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{g}). Define δg(f,x)\delta_g(f,x) as the proportion of prime values f(n)f(n) up to xx that are Artin primes for gg. Moree's density conjecture. The limit δg(f)=lim⁡x→∞δg(f,x)\delta_g(f)=\lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}\delta_g(f,x) exists and is independent of gg, and

δg(f)=δ(f):=∏q>2 prime(1−#{s(modq)∣f(s)≡1(modq)}q#{s(modq)∣f(s)≢0(modq)}).\delta_g(f)=\delta(f):=\prod_{q>2\ \text{prime}}\left(1-\frac{\#\{s\pmod q\mid f(s)\equiv1\pmod q\}}{q\#\{s\pmod q\mid f(s)\not\equiv0\pmod q\}}\right).

This is a proposed explicit density in the inert quadratic-field case; its general validity is open.
