Abstract:The existence of primes in a short interval, which asks if there are prime numbers in the interval $[x, x + x^\theta]$, is a core problem in number theory. Guth and Maynard proved the best known result for this problem with an asymptotic formula while Baker, Harman and Pintz proved the best lower bound result.
In this article, we focus on Piatetski-Shapiro primes in a short interval. The study of Piatetski-Shapiro primes of the form $\lfloor n^c \rfloor$ is an approximation of the well-known conjecture that there exist infinitely many primes of the form $n^2+1$. We prove the existence of such primes under restrictions on $\theta$ and $c$ with an asymptotic formula and a lower bound, respectively.
