Title: <strong>Generalizations of Problems of Pomerance on Residue Systems</strong>

<strong>Abstract:</strong> In 1980, Pomerance showed that there are only finitely many integers k such that the first \varphi( k) primes coprime to k form a reduced residue system. He conjectured that any such k should be in {2,4,6,12,18,30}. This was solved by Yang and Togbe in 2014. We shall discuss the method involved and also some generalizations of this problem which are connected with Prime l-tuple conjecture.
