Dickson's conjecture

name

(number theory) The conjecture that, for a finite set of linear forms a₁ + b₁n, a₂ + b₂n, ..., aₖ + bₖn with bᵢ ≥ 1, there are infinitely many positive integers n for which they are all prime, unless there is a congruence condition preventing this.

Dickson's conjecture is an unsolved problem in number theory.
