Review text

Der Verf. untersucht dasselbe Irrfahrtproblem wie in I (siehe vorstehende Besprechung, \textit{H.P.McKean jun.}, Zbl 0098.32402). Er betrachtet die Anzahl \(e(n)\) der Gitterpunkte \((p,0,0),p\) Primzahl \(\leq n\), die von einer Irrfahrt getroffen werden. Er zeigt, daß \(e(n)/c_1 \log \log n\) stochastisch gegen 1 konvergiert und skizziert, wie man für fast alle Irrfahrten auch Konvergenz des obigen Ausdruckes gegen 1 im gewöhnlichen Sinne zeigen kann.
