Abstract
Under sufficiently strong assumptions about the first term in
an arithmetic progression, we prove that for any integer $a$,
there are infinitely many $n\in \mathbb N$ such that for each
prime factor $p|n$, we have $p-a|n-a$. This can be seen as a
generalization of Carmichael numbers, which are integers $n$
such that $p-1|n-1$ for every $p|n$.
