摘要

We consider almost-primes of the form f(p) where f is an irreducible polynomial over Z and p runs over primes. We improve a result of Richert for polynomials of degree at least 3. In particular, we show that, when the degree is large, there are infinitely many primes p for which f(p) has at most deg f + O(log deg f) prime factors.
