In order to achieve this, we establish a joint distribution concerning the fractional part of $\\alpha p^\\theta$ for $\\theta \\in [0,1], \\alpha>0$, and primes $p$ satisfying the Chebotarev condition. As a corollary, we also obtain upper bounds for the number of extremal primes. The results rely on GRH for Dedekind zeta functions for Galois extensions of number fields", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-12-23T08:11:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11G05", "11N05" ], "keywords": [ "chebotarev density theorem", "extremal primes", "fixed non-cm elliptic curve", "dedekind zeta functions", "galois extensions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
