Fractional Parts of Non-Integer Powers of Primes. II

Abstract

Abstract We continue to study the distribution of prime numbers p, satisfying the condition $\{p^{\alpha} \} \in I \subset [0; 1)$, in arithmetic progressions. In this paper, we prove an analogue of Bombieri–Vinogradov theorem for 0 < α < 1/9 with the level of distribution $\theta = 2/5 - (3/5) \alpha$, which improves the previous result corresponding to $\theta \leqslant 1/3$.
