Dickson's generalised Hardy–Littlewood conjecture for affine-linear forms
Let be positive integers, let be a system of affine-linear forms with , and let be a convex body. Define the archimedean factor and local factors as in the paper. Generalised Hardy–Littlewood conjecture. One has
Here is the von Mangoldt function, and the product is over primes. This is the expected asymptotic for prime values of a system of affine-linear forms, incorporating both archimedean and local congruence factors. The conjecture remains open in general, although the paper proves it conditionally for systems of finite complexity from the inverse Gowers-norm and Möbius–nilsequence conjectures.
