Abstract

While the twin prime conjecture is still famously open, it holds true in the setting of finite fields: There are infinitely many pairs of monic irreducible polynomials over Fq that differ by a fixed constant, for each q≥3. Elementary, constructive proofs were given for different cases by Hall and Pollack. In the same spirit, we discuss the construction of a further infinite family of twin prime tuples of odd degree, and its relations to the existence of certain Wieferich primes and to arithmetic properties of the combinatorial Bell numbers.
