On the irreducibility of $f(2^n,3^m,X)$ and other such polynomials

Abstract: Let $f(t_1, \ldots, t_r, X)\in \mathbb{Z}[t_1, \ldots, t_r,X]$ be irreducible and let $a_1, \ldots, a_r\in \mathbb{Z} \smallsetminus {0,\pm 1}$. Under a necessary ramification assumption on $f$, and conditionally on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we show that for almost all integers $n_1, \ldots, n_r$, the polynomial $f(a_1^{n_1}, \ldots, a_r^{n_r}, X)$ is irreducible in $\mathbb{Q}[X]$.
