Erdős problem 975

For an irreducible polynomial fZ[x]f \in \mathbb{Z}[x] with f(n)1f(n) \ge 1 for sufficiently large nn, does there exists a constant c=c(f)>0c = c(f) > 0 such that nxτ(f(n))cxlogx\sum_{n \le x} \tau(f(n)) \approx c \cdot x \log x?

Retained formal statement5 of 6

When ff is an irreducible quadratic polynomial, the question is answered first by Hooley [Ho63]. More compact expression of the constant in terms of Hurwitz class numbers (when a=1a = 1) is given by McKey in [Mc95], [Mc97], [Mc99].

TODO: formalize Hurwitz class numbers and the expression of the constant in terms of them.
