We write e(x) for e2πix, ∥x∥ for the distance of x from the nearest integer and use A ≫ B to mean |A|<c |B|, where c is a positive constant depending at most on k and e. The letter p always denotes a prime number; P2 represents a number with precisely two prime factors. We continue the investigations started in [6] and will make many references to the analysis there. Here we prove the following theorems.
