Abstract

For $c\,>\,1$ we denote by ${{\pi }_{c}}\left( x \right)$ the number of integers $n\,\le \,x$ such that $\left\lfloor {{n}^{c}} \right\rfloor $ is prime. In 1953, Piatetski-Shapiro has proved that ${{\pi }_{c}}\left( x \right)\,\sim \,\frac{x}{c\,\log \,x},\,x\to \,+\infty $ holds for $c\,<\,12/11$. Many authors have extended this range, which measures our progress in exponential sums techniques. In this article we obtain $c\,<\,1.16117\ldots $.
