Abstract: Let $mathcal{P}_r$ denote an almost-prime with at most $r$ prime factors, counted according to multiplicity. In this paper, we generalize the result of Vaughan for ternary admissible exponent. Moreover, we use the refined admissible exponent to prove that, for $3leqslantkleqslant14$ and for every sufficiently large even integer $n$, the following equation �egin{equation*} n=x^2+p_1^2+p_2^3+p_3^3+p_4^3+p_5^k end{equation*} is solvable with $x$ being an almost-prime $mathcal{P}_{r(k)}$ and the other variables primes, where $r(k)$ is defined in Theorem. This result constitutes a deepening upon that of previous results.

Review text

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.
