Linnik's theorem

Linnik's theorem Linnik's theorem in analytic number theory answers a natural question after Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progressions. It asserts that there exist positive c and L such that, if we denote p(a,d) the least prime in the arithmetic progression {displaystyle a+nd, } where n runs through the positive integers and a and d are any given positive coprime integers with 1 ≤ a ≤ d − 1, then: {displaystyle operatorname {p} (a,d)-functions".
