We analyze the average behavior of various arithmetic functions at the values of degree $d$ binary forms ordered by height, with probability $1$. This approach yields averaged versions of the Chowla conjecture and the Bateman-Horn…

The Bateman--Horn Conjecture predicts how often an irreducible polynomial $f(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ assumes prime values. We demonstrate that with sufficient averaging in the coefficients of $f$ (viz. exponential in the size of the inputs),…

For any $r \in \mathbb{N}$ and almost all $k \in \mathbb{N}$ smaller than $x^r$, we show that the polynomial $f(n) = n^r + k$ takes the expected number of prime values as $n$ ranges from 1 to $x$. As a consequence, we deduce statements…

This paper investigates the asymptotics of the number of prime values taken by a polynomial in several variables with integer coefficients. Based on probabilistic heuristics and the multidimensional Bateman Horn conjecture, the expected…

We estimate the average of any arithmetic function $k$ over the values of any smooth polynomial in many variables provided only that $k$ has a distribution in arithmetic progressions of fixed modulus. We give several applications of this…

We report the results of our empirical investigations on the Bateman-Horn conjecture. This conjecture, in its commonly known form, produces rather large deviations when the polynomials involved are not monic. We propose a modified version…

A central question in Arithmetic geometry is to determine for which polynomials $f \in \mathbb{Z}[t]$ and which number fields $K$ the Hasse principle holds for the affine equation $f(t) = N_{K/\mathbb{Q}}(\boldsymbol{x}) \neq 0$. Whilst…

The number of square-free integers in $x$ consecutive values of any polynomial $f$ is conjectured to be $c_fx$, where the constant $c_f$ depends only on the polynomial $f$. This has been proven for degrees less or equal to 3. Granville was…

Let $d$ and $n$ be natural numbers. Let $\nu_{d,n}: \mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{N}$ denote the Veronese embedding with $N=N_{n,d}:=\binom{n+d-1}{d}$, defined by listing all the monomials of degree $d$ in $n$ variables using the…

Let $L$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$. We calculate the proportion of polynomials of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ that are everywhere locally norms from $L/\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ which fail to be global norms from…

In this paper, we investigate the solubility of homogeneous polynomial equations. The work of Browning, Le boudec, Sawin [3] shows that almost all homogeneous equations of degree $d\geq 4$ in $d+1$ or more variables satisfy the Hasse…

Let $\lambda(n)$ be the Liouville function. We study the distribution of \[ \frac{1}{x^{1/2}}\sum_{x\leq n\leq 2x}\lambda(f(n)) \] over random polynomials $f$ of fixed degree $d$ and coefficients bounded in magnitude by $H$. In particular…

We propose a conjecture, similar to Skolem's conjecture, on a Hasse-type principle for exponential diophantine equations. We prove that in a sense the principle is valid for "almost all" equations. Based upon this we propose a general…

We prove an analogue of the classical Bateman-Horn conjecture on prime values of polynomials for the ring of polynomials over a large finite field. Namely, given non-associate, irreducible, separable and monic (in the variable $x$)…

Let $F$ be a univariate polynomial or rational fraction of degree $d$ defined over a number field. We give bounds from above on the absolute logarithmic Weil height of $F$ in terms of the heights of its values at small integers: we review…

Although we expect to find many smooth numbers (i.e., numbers with no large prime factors) among the values taken by a polynomial with integer coefficients, it is unclear what the asymptotic number of such smooth values should be; this is…

We establish a new class of examples of the multivariate Bateman-Horn conjecture by using tools from dynamics. These cases include the determinant polynomial on the space of $n\times n$ matrices, the Pfaffian on the space of skew-symmetric…

We consider the distribution of the binomial probability mass function (pmf) among arithmetic progressions and obtain an average-type theorem. As applications, we consider the possible visits to a kind of sieved sets of integers or lattice…

We describe some studies related to the frequency of prime values of integer polynomials.

In this paper, we focus on computing the higher slope Hasse polynomials of L-functions of certain exponential sums associated to the following family of Laurent polynomials $f(x_1,\ldots ,x_{n+1})=\sum_{i=1}^na_i…
