Abstract

Let γ=89+23log(10/9)log10(0.919).\gamma^*=\frac{8}{9}+\frac{2}{3}\:\frac{\log(10/9)}{\log 10}\:(\approx 0.919\ldots)\:. Let γ<γ01\gamma^*<\gamma_0\leq 1, c0=1/γ0c_0=1/\gamma_0 be fixed. Let also a0{0,1,,9}a_0\in\{0,1,\ldots, 9\}.\\ We prove on assumption of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis that each sufficiently large odd integer N0N_0 can be represented in the form N0=p1+p2+p3,N_0=p_1+p_2+p_3\:, where the pip_i are of the form pi=[nic0]p_i=[n_i^{c_0}], niNn_i\in\mathbb{N}, for i=1,2i=1,2 and the decimal expansion of p3p_3 does not contain the digit a0a_0.\\ The proof merges methods of J. Maynard from his paper on the infinitude of primes with restricted digits, results of A. Balog and J. Friedlander on Piatetski-Shapiro primes and the Hardy-Littlewood circle method in two variables. This is the first result on the ternary Goldbach problem with primes of mixed type which involves primes with missing digits.
