Fractional parts of non-integer powers of primes. II

Abstract

We continue to study the distribution of prime numbers $p$, satisfying the condition $\{ p^{\alpha} \} \in I \subset [0; 1)$, in arithmetic progressions. In the paper, we prove an analogue of Bombieri-Vinogradov theorem for $0 < \alpha < 1/9$ with the level of distribution $\theta = 2/5 - (3/5) \alpha$, which improves the previous result corresponding to $\theta \leq 1/3$.
