Abstract

Let X be a sufficiently great real number and M denote the set of natural numbers not exceeding X which cannot be written as a sum of a prime and a fixed degree of a prime number from the arithmetical progression with difference d. Let Ed(X) = cardM. We obtain a new numerical degree estimate for the set Ed(X) and an estimate from below for the number of presentations of nM in the specified type. The proven estimates refine the generalization for an arithmetical progression of results earlier got by V.A. Plaksin.
