A number is said to be -smooth if all of its prime factors are
at most . A lot of work has been done to establish the (equi)distribution
of smooth numbers in arithmetic progressions, on various ranges of ,
and (the common difference of the progression). In this talk I will
explain some recent results on this problem. One ingredient is the use of a
majorant principle for trigonometric sums to carefully analyse a certain
contour integral. |
