Abstract

We obtain some improved results for the exponential sum $\sum _{x<n\leq 2x}\Lambda (n)e(\alpha k n^{\theta })$ with $\theta \in (0,5/12),$ where $\Lambda (n)$ is the von Mangoldt function. Such exponential sums have relations with the so-called quasi-Riemann hypothesis and were considered by Murty and Srinivas [‘On the uniform distribution of certain sequences’, Ramanujan J. 7 (2003), 185–192].
