文摘Let Pr denote an almost-prime with at most r prime factors,counted according to multiplicity.In this paper,it is proved that,for every sufficiently large even integer N,the equation N=x^(2)+p_(2)^(2)+p_(3)^(3)+p_(4)^(3)+p_(5)^(5)+_6^(5)is solvable with being an almost-prime P_(6) and the other variables primes.This result constitutes an enhancement upon the previous result of Hooley[Recent Progress in Analytic Number Theory,Vol.1(Durham,1979),London:Academic Press,1981,127-191].

文摘Let d(n;r_(1),q_(1),r_(2),q_(2))be the number of factorization n=n_(1)n_(2)satisfying n_i≡r_i(mod q_i)(i=1,2)andΔ(x;r_(1),q_(1),r_(2),q_(2))be the error term of the summatory function of d(n;r_(1),q_(1),r_(2),q_(2)).Suppose x≥(q_(1)q_(2))^(1+ε),1≤r_i≤q_i,and(r_i,q_i)=1(i=1,2).This paper studies the power moments and sign changes ofΔ(x;r_(1),q_(1),r_(2),q_(2)).We prove that for sufficiently large constant C,Δ(q_(1)q_(2)x:r_(1),q_(1),r_(2),q_(2))changes sign in the interval[T,T+C√T]for any large T.Meanwhile,we show that for small constants c and c,there exist infinitely many subintervals of length c√log^(-7)T in[T,2T]where±Δ(q_(1)q_(2)x:r_(1),q_(1),r_(2),q_(2))>cx^(1/4)always holds.
