Primes in Beatty sequence
Abstract
For a polynomial g(x) of deg k ≥ 2 with integer coefficients and positive integer leading coefficient, we prove an upper bound for the least prime p such that g(p) is in non-homogeneous Beatty sequence α n+β : n=1,2,3, … , where α, β ∈ R with α >1 is irrational and we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of primes p such that g(p)= α n+β . Next we obtain an asymptotic formula for number of primes p of the form p= α n+β which also satisfies p f d where f, d are integers with 1≤ f < d and (f,d)=1.
