On the Waring-Goldbach problem for squares, cubes and higher powers (Q2054723)

Let \(k\) be an integer between \(3\) and \(14\). The paper proves that any sufficiently large integer \(n\) can be written as a sum of one square, four cubes of prime numbers, and a \(k\)-th power of a prime number, provided that (a) the square has a most \(r(k)\) prime factors counted according to multiplicity, (b) the map \(r\) is defined on these \(k\)'s by the following rule: \(r(k) = k\) if \(k \in \{3,4,5\}\), \(r(k) = k-1\) if \(k \in \{6,7,8,14\}\), and \(r(k)=k-2\) in the remaining \(k\)'s.
