Asymptotics for some polynomial patterns in the primes
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 January 2019
Abstract
We prove asymptotic formulae for sums of the form
The paper combines ingredients from the work of Green and Tao on linear equations in primes and that of Matthiesen on linear correlations amongst integers represented by a quadratic form. To make the von Mangoldt function compatible with the representation function of a quadratic form, we provide a new pseudorandom majorant for both – an average of the known majorants for each of the functions – and prove that it has the required pseudorandomness properties.
