Abstract
We prove a number field analogue of the Green--Tao--Ziegler theorem on simultaneous prime values of degree 1 polynomials whose linear parts are pairwise linearly independent. Applications of our results include a Hasse principle of rational points for certain fibrations over number fields which had only been available over by Harpaz--Skorobogatov--Wittenberg, and construction of elliptic curves having some specified ranks due to Koymans--Pagano and Zywina. This latter family of results led to a negative answer to a generalized Hilbert Tenth Problem.
