An average version of Cilleruelo's conjecture for families of -polynomials over a number field

arXiv:2402.03999

Abstract

For an irreducible polynomial of degree , the Cilleruelo's conjecture states that$$\log(\mbox{lcm}(f(1),\dots,f(M)))\sim(n-1)M\log M$$as , where $ \mbox{lcm}(f(1),\dots,f(M)) $ is the least common multiple of . It's well-known for as a consequence of Dirichlet's Theorem for primes in arithmetic progression, and it was proved by Cilleruelo for quadratic polynomials. Recently the conjecture was shown by Rudnick and Zehavi for a large family of polynomials of any degree. We want to investigate an average version of the conjecture for -polynomials with integral coefficients over a fixed extension by considering the least common multiple of ideals of .
