In this paper we solve a function field analogue of classical problems in analytic number theory, concerning the auto-correlations of divisor functions, in the limit of a large finite field.
We prove Dirichlet's theorem for polynomial rings: Let F be a pseudo algebraically closed field. Then for all relatively prime polynomials a(X), b(X)\in F[X] and for every sufficiently large positive integer n there exist infinitely many polynomials c(X)\in F[X] such that a(X) + b(X)c(X) is irreducible of degree n, provided that F has a separable extension of degree n.
We extend Haran's Diamond Theorem to closed subgroups of a finitely generated free profinite group. This gives an affirmative answer to Problem 25.4.9 in the book Field Arithmetics of Fried and Jarden.
