Abstract

Let 1<k<7/61<k<7/6, λ1,λ2,λ3\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3 and λ4\lambda_4 be non-zero real numbers, not all of the same sign such that λ1/λ2\lambda_1/\lambda_2 is irrational and let ω\omega be a real number. We prove that the inequality λ1p12+λ2p22+λ3p32+λ4p4kω(maxjpj)76k14k+ε|\lambda_1p_1^2+\lambda_2p_2^2+\lambda_3p_3^2+\lambda_4p_4^k-\omega|\le (\max_j p_j)^{-\frac{7-6k}{14k}+\varepsilon} has infinitely many solutions in prime variables p1,p2,p3,p4p_1,p_2,p_3,p_4 for any ε>0\varepsilon>0.
