We investigate the Waring-Goldbach problem of representing a positive integer $n$ as the sum of $s$ $k$th powers of almost equal prime numbers. Define $s_k=2k(k-1)$ when $k\ge 3$, and put $s_2=6$. In addition, put $\theta_2=\frac{19}{24}$,…
In this paper, we study a density version of Waring's problem. We prove that a positive density subset of $k$th-powers forms an asymptotic additive basis of order $O(k^2)$ provided that the relative lower density of the set is greater than…
Let $k\geq2$ and $s$ be positive integers. Let $\theta\in(0,1)$ be a real number. In this paper, we establish that if $s>k(k+1)$ and $\theta>0.55$, then every sufficiently large natural number $n$, subjects to certain congruence conditions,…
Let $\delta > 1/2$. We prove that if $A$ is a subset of the primes such that the relative density of $A$ in every reduced residue class is at least $\delta$, then almost all even integers can be written as the sum of two primes in $A$. The…
We use transference principle to show that whenever $s$ is suitably large depending on $k \geq 2$, every sufficiently large natural number $n$ satisfying some congruence conditions can be written in the form $n = p_1^k + \dots + p_s^k$,…
In this paper, it is established that every sufficiently large positive integer $n$ subject to $n\equiv0\pmod2$ can be represented as a sum of one square of prime and seventeen fifth powers of primes, which gives an enhancement upon the…
In this paper, we exhibit an asymptotic formula for the number of representations of a large integer as a sum of a fixed power of Piatetski-Shapiro primes, thereby establishing a variant of Waring-Goldbach problem with primes from a sparse…
We prove that if $A$ is a subset of those primes which are congruent to $1 \pmod{3}$ such that the relative density of $A$ in this residue class is larger than $\frac{1}{2},$ then every sufficiently large odd integer $n$ which satisfies $n…
In this paper, we investigate exceptional sets in the Waring-Goldbach problem for unlike powers. For example, estimates are obtained for sufficiently large integers below a parameter subject to the necessary local conditions that do not…
Let $\mathcal{P}$ denote the set of all primes. $P_{1},P_{2},P_{3}$ are three subsets of $\mathcal{P}$. Let $\underline{\delta}(P_{i})$ $(i=1,2,3)$ denote the lower density of $P_{i}$ in $\mathcal{P}$, respectively. It is proved that if…
We give an upper bound for the minimum $s$ with the property that every sufficiently large integer can be represented as the sum of $s$ positive $k$-th powers of integers represented as the sum of three positive cubes for the cases $2\leq…
Waring's classical problem deals with expressing every natural number as a sum of g(k) k-th powers. Recently there has been considerable interest in similar questions for nonabelian groups, and simple groups in particular. Here the k-th…
We examine the problem of writing every sufficiently large even number as the sum of two primes and at most $K$ powers of 2. We outline an approach that only just falls short of improving the current bounds on $K$. Finally, we improve the…
Let $G(k)$ denote the least number $s$ having the property that every sufficiently large natural number is the sum of at most $s$ positive integral $k$-th powers. Then for all $k\in \mathbb N$, one has \[ G(k)\le \lceil k(\log…
Let $\mathcal{P}$ denote the set of all primes, and let $\underline\delta(P)$ denote the relative lower density of a subset $P$ in $\mathcal{P}$. Suppose that $P_1, P_2, P_3, P_4$ are four subsets of primes with…
Let $A$ be a subset of primes up to $x$. If we assume $A$ is well-distributed (in the Siegel-Walfisz sense) in any arithmetic progressions to moduli $q\leqslant(\log x)^c$ for any $c>0$, then the sumset $A+A$ has density 1/2 in the natural…
We investigate the existence of representations of every large positive integer as a sum of $k$-th powers of integers represented as certain diagonal forms. In particular, we consider a family of diagonal forms and discuss the problem of…
In this paper, it is proved that, for $\gamma\in(\frac{317}{320},1)$, every sufficiently large odd integer can be written as the sum of nine cubes of primes, each of which is of the form $[n^{1/\gamma}]$. This result constitutes an…
Let $P$ be a subset of the primes of lower density strictly larger than $\frac12$. Then, every sufficiently large even integer is a sum of four primes from the set $P$. We establish similar results for $k$-summands, with $k\geq 4$, and for…
In this paper, we use the transference principle to investigate the representation of sufficiently large positive integers as the sum of prime powers and integer powers, where the primes are drawn from a positive density subset of the set…
