| Popis: | We study two types of problems for polynomial Farey fractions. For a positive integer $Q$, and polynomial $P(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$ with $P(0)=0$, we define polynomial Farey fractions as \[\mathcal{F}_{Q,P}:=\left\{\frac{a}{q}: 1\leq a\leq q\leq Q,\ \gcd (P(a),q)=1\right\}.\] The classical Farey fractions are obtained by considering $P(x)=x$. In this article, we determine the global and local distribution of the sequence of polynomial Farey fractions via discrepancy and pair correlation measure, respectively. In particular, we establish that the sequence of polynomial Farey fractions is uniformly distributed modulo one and that the pair correlation measure of $\mathcal{F}_{Q,P}$ exists and provide an upper bound. Further, restricting the polynomial Farey denominators to certain subsets of primes, we explicitly find the pair correlation measure and show it to be Poissonian. Finally, we study Chebyshev's bias type of questions for the classical and polynomial Farey denominators along arithmetic progressions and obtain an $\Omega$-result for the error term of its counting function.
