Abstract

Let [][\, \cdot\,] be the floor function and x\|x\| denotes the distance from xx to the nearest integer. In this paper we show that whenever α\alpha is irrational and β\beta is real then for any fixed 1<c<12/111<c<12/11 there exist infinitely many prime numbers pp satisfying the inequality \begin{equation*} \|\alpha p+\beta\|\ll p^{\frac{11c-12}{26c}}\log^6p \end{equation*} and such that p=[nc]p=[n^c].
