Let ts,n be the n-th positive integer number which can be written as a power p, t ≥ s, of a prime p (s ≥ 1 is fixed). Let πs(x) denote the number of prime powers p, t ≥ s, not exceeding x. We study the asymptotic behaviour of the sequence ts,n and of the function πs(x). We prove that the sequence ts,n has an asymptotic expansion comparable to that of pn (the Cipolla’s expansion).
