Infinitely many primes in the Chebyshev-related sequence
Infinitely many primes in the Chebyshev-related sequence
Let be the sequence associated with the positive integer parameter , and let denote the dilated Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind evaluated at the integer . Prime-occurrence conjecture for . For every positive integer , the sequence
contains infinitely many primes if and only if for every prime and every integer . The exceptional Chebyshev values are known to yield at most one prime term, while the assertion of infinitely many primes for all other values remains open.
