Abstract

In this paper we consider the equation $x_{1}^{2} + x_{2}^{2} + x_{3}^{2} + x_{4}^{2} = N$, where $N$ is a sufficiently large integer and prove that if $\eta $ is quadratic irrational number and $0 < \lambda < \frac{1}{10}$, then it has a solution in almost-prime numbers $x_{1}, \ldots , x_{4}$, such that $\{ \eta x_{i} \} < N^{-\lambda }$ for $i = 1, \ldots , 4$.
