On pairs of equations with unequal powers of primes and powers of 2

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics
It is proved that every pair of sufficiently large even integers can be represented in the form of a pair of equations, each containing two squares of primes, two cubes of primes, two biquadrates of primes, and $ 30 $ powers of 2.

Exceptional sets in Waring's problem: two squares and s biquadrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Let $R_s(n)$ denote the number of representations of the positive number $n$ as the sum of two squares and $s$ biquadrates. When $s=3$ or $4$, it is established that the anticipated asymptotic formula for $R_s(n)$ holds for all $n\le X$ with at most $O(X^

Sums of four squares of primes

open access: yes, 2015
Let $E(N)$ denote the number of positive integers $n \le N$, with $n \equiv 4 \pmod{24}$, which cannot be represented as the sum of four squares of primes. We establish that $E(N)\ll N^{11/32}$, thus improving on an earlier result of Harman and the first

On the Waring–Goldbach problem with small non-integer exponent [PDF]

open access: yesActa Arithmetica, 2003
Let \(c>1\) be non-integer and denote by \(H(c)\) the least \(k\) such that the inequality \[ |p_1^c + p_2^c + \cdots + p_k^c - N|< \varepsilon \] has a solution in prime numbers \(p_1, p_2, \ldots, p_k\) for every \(\varepsilon >0\) and \(N> N_0(c, \varepsilon)\).

On Waring–Goldbach problem involving fourth powers

open access: yesJournal of Number Theory, 2011
It is proved that every sufficiently large positive integer \(N\equiv 13\pmod{240}\) can be represented as \(p_1^4+p_2^4+\dots +p_{12}^4+P^4\), where \(p_1,\dots,p_{12}\) are primes and \(P\) is a \(P_5\)-almost prime. For comparison we note that \textit{K. Kawada} and \textit{T. D. Wooley} [Proc. Lond. Math. Soc., III. Ser. 83, No. 1, 1--50 (2001; Zbl

On the Waring–Goldbach problem for seventh powers [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 2005
We use sieve theory and recent estimates for Weyl sums over almost primes to prove that every sufficiently large even integer is the sum of 46 46 seventh powers of prime numbers.

Sums of four prime cubes in short intervals

open access: yes, 2018
We prove that a suitable asymptotic formula for the average number of representations of integers $n=p_{1}^{3}+p_{2}^{3}+p_{3}^{3}+p_{4}^{3}$, where $p_1,p_2,p_3,p_4$ are prime numbers, holds in intervals shorter than the the ones previously known ...

A note on the Waring–Goldbach problem

open access: yesJournal of Number Theory, 2010
For a positive integer \(k\) and a prime \(p\), let \(\nu_p(k)\) denote the \(p\)-adic valuation of \(k\), i.e., \(\nu_p(k)\) is the largest integer \(\nu\) such that \(p^{\nu} \mid k\). Let \(\gamma(k, p) = \nu_p(k)+1\) if either \(p\) or \(k\) is odd, and let \(\gamma(k, 2) = \nu_2(k)+2\) if \(k\) is even. For a positive integer \(k\), we define \(K =

What is the smallest prime? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
What is the first prime? It seems that the number two should be the obvious answer, and today it is, but it was not always so. There were times when and mathematicians for whom the numbers one and three were acceptable answers.
