Abstract
The Piatetski-Shapiro sequences are of the form with . In this paper, we study the distribution of pairs of consecutive primes such that and for and give a conjecture with the prime counting functions of the pairs . We give a heuristic argument to support this prediction which relies on a strong form of the Hardy-Littlewood conjecture. Moreover, we prove a proposition related to the average of singular series with a weight of a complex exponential function.
