Abstract: It is well known that the prime numbers are equidistributed in arithmetic progressions. Such a phenomenon is also observed more generally for a class of multiplicative functions. We derive some variants of such results and give a few applications. We also discuss an interesting application that relates to the Chowla conjecture on correlations of the M\"obius function, and show its relevance to the twin prime conjecture. |
