AbstractWe prove irregularities in the distribution of prime numbers in any Beatty sequence ${\mathcal{B}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC},\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FD})$, where $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$ is a positive real irrational number of finite type.

1. Introduction. Let ω be an irrational number. It is well known that there exists a positive real number h such that the inequality(1)has infinitely many solutions in coprime integers a and c. A theorem of Hurwitz asserts that the set of all such numbers h is a closed set with supremum √5. Various proofs of these results are known, among them one by Ford (1), in which he makes use of properties of the modular group. This approach suggests the following generalization.

AbstractLet$K$be a finitely generated extension of$\mathbb {Q}$. We consider the family of$\ell $-adic representations ($\ell $varies through the set of all prime numbers) of the absolute Galois group of$K$, attached to$\ell $-adic cohomology of a separated scheme of finite type over$K$. We prove that the fields cut out from the algebraic closure of$K$by the kernels of the representations of the family are linearly disjoint over a finite extension of K. This gives a positive answer to a question of Serre.

Let pi, 2 ≤ i ≤ 5 be prime numbers. It is proved that all but ≪ x23027/23040+ε even integers N ≤ x can be written as N = p21 + p32 + p43 + p45.
