Almost primes in various settings

Abstract: Let

k g e q 3

and let

L_{i} (n) = A_{i} n + B_{i}

be some linear forms such that

A_{i}

and

B_{i}

are integers. Define

m a t h c a l P (n) = p r o d_{i = 1}^{k} L_{i} (n)

. For each

k

it is known that

O m e g a (m a t h c a l P (n)) l e q h o_{k}

infinitely often for some integer

h o_{k}

. We improve the possible values of

h o_{k}

for

4 l e q k l e q 10

assuming

G E H

. We also show that we can take

h o_{5} = 14

unconditionally. As a by-product of our approach we reprove the

h o_{3} = 7

result which was previously obtained by Maynard who used techniques specifically designed for this case.
