      The authors obtain a further improvement in the shortness of the interval \((x,x+h (x))\) that (for \(x\) large enough) can be guaranteed to contain a squarefree number. Improving in particular their own results in [Analytic number theory, Prog. Math. 85, 235--253 (1990; Zbl 0723.11044)], to which their readers are referred for a fuller history of the problem, they can now take \(h(x)= cx^{1/5} \log x\). Their method is elementary and continues to depend on ideas involving differencing. They also use ideas drawn from the paper of \textit{K. F. Roth} on this topic [J. Lond. Math. Soc., II. Ser. 26, 263--268 (1951; Zbl 0043.04802)].
