Obviously, we have<br />
S(∆) := �<br />
n, r ∼ Y,<br />
|t| ≤ ∆<br />
Combining (7) and (8), we obtain <strong>the</strong> desired estimate. ✷<br />
To optimize <strong>the</strong> estimate in Lemma 4, we choose<br />
1.<br />
S(∆) ≪ ∆Y 2−λ + Y. (8)<br />

Then, by a short calculati<strong>on</strong> using J ≤ H = N t and XY = N, we obtain<br />

This implies<br />

Heath-Brown established <strong>the</strong> following two estimates for Kh (see [11, pages 261-262]).<br />
