Metric diophantine approximation with two restricted variables. III: Two prime numbers (Q1109072)

Let \(\psi\) denote a real arithmetical function \(0<\psi (n)<\) which satisfies a simple regularity condition. In this paper, the author proves that if the series \(\sum_{\text{all primes }p}\psi (p)/\log p\) diverges then, for almost all real \(\alpha\), the inequality \(| \alpha p-q| <\psi (p)\) has infinitely many solutions in primes p, q. This gives the counter-part of a result already demonstrated in part I (see Zbl 0655.10047), namely, if the series converges then the inequality has only finitely many solutions in primes p, q.
