Let $${\mathbb P}^c=(\lfloor p^c\rfloor)_{p\in{\mathbb P}} \qquad (c>1,\ c\not\in {\mathbb N}), $$ where ${\mathbb P}$ is the set of prime numbers, and $\lfloor\cdot\rfloor$ is the floor function. We show that for every such $c$ there are…

The sequence $$ \mathbb{P}^{(c)}=(\lfloor p^c \rfloor)_{p\in \mathbb{P}}\quad (c>0,c\notin \mathbb{N}), $$ is an important subsequence of the well-known Piatetski-Shapiro sequence, where $\mathbb{P}$ is the set of prime numbers and $\lfloor…
We consider the equation $[p_{1}^{c}] + [p_{2}^{c}] + [p_{3}^{c}] = N$, where $N$ is a sufficiently large integer, and prove that if $1 < c < \frac{17}{16}$, then it has a solution in prime numbers $p_{1}$, $p_{2}$, $p_{3}$ such that each…

Let $k \ge 2$ and $s$ be positive integers, and let $n$ be a large positive integer subject to certain local conditions. We prove that if $s \ge k^2+k+1$ and $\theta > 31/40$, then $n$ can be expressed as a sum $p_1^k + \dots + p_s^k$,…
Mills showed that there exists a constant $A$ such that $\lfloor{A^{3^n}}\rfloor$ is prime for every positive integer $n$. Kuipers and Ansari generalized this result to $\lfloor{A^{c^n}}\rfloor$ where $c\in\mathbb{R}$ and $c\geq 2.106$. The…
Let $1 < c < 24/19$. We show that the number of integers $n \le N$ that cannot be written as $[p_1^c] + [p_2^c]$ ($p_1$, $p_2$ primes) is $O(N^{1-\sigma+\varepsilon})$. Here $\sigma$ is a positive function of $c$ (given explicitly) and…
We study the representations of large integers $n$ as sums $p_1^2 + ... + p_s^2$, where $p_1,..., p_s$ are primes with $| p_i - (n/s)^{1/2} | \le n^{\theta/2}$, for some fixed $\theta < 1$. When $s = 5$ we use a sieve method to show that…
