In 1987, Dan Gordon defined an elliptic curve analogue to Carmichael numbers known as elliptic Carmichael numbers. In this paper, we prove that there are infinitely many elliptic Carmichael numbers. In doing so, we resolve in the…

Under the assumption of Heath-Brown's conjecture on the first prime in an arithmetic progression, we prove that there are infinitely many Carmichael numbers $n$ such that the number of prime factors of $n$ is prime.

Using the sieve, we show that there are infinitely many Carmichael numbers whose prime factors all have the form $p = 1 + a^2 + b^2$ with $a,b \in{\mathbb Z}$.

In this short paper we shall prove that there exist infinitely many consecutive square-free numbers of the form $[\alpha p]$, $[\alpha p]+1$, where $p$ is prime and $\alpha>0$ is irrational algebraic number. We also establish an asymptotic…

Under sufficiently strong assumptions about the first term in an arithmetic progression, we prove that for any integer $a$, there are infinitely many $n\in \mathbb N$ such that for each prime factor $p|n$, we have $p-a|n-a$. This can be…

We extend our previous computations to show that there are 585355 Carmichael numbers up to $10^{17}$. As before, the numbers were generated by a back-tracking search for possible prime factorisations together with a ``large prime…

Let $m$ be a Carmichael number and let $L$ be the least common multiple of $p-1$, where $p$ runs over the prime factors of $m$. We determine all the Carmichael numbers $m$ with a Fermat prime factor such that $L=2^{\alpha}P^2$, where $k\in…

In this paper, we prove that there are infinitely many $n$ for which $rad(\varphi(n))|n-1$ but $n$ is not a Carmichael number. Additionally, we prove that for any $k\geq 3$, there exist infinitely many $n$ such that $\varphi(n)|(n-1)^k$ but…

We introduce the concept of an almost prime number generalizing a prime number. It turns out that a composite almost prime number must be a Carmichael number, in case it exists. We prove several properties of almost prime numbers and…

We prove that every arithmetic progression either contains infinitely many Carmichael numbers or none at all. Furthermore, there is a simple criterion for determining which category a given arithmetic progression falls into. In particular,…

Given an integer $k$, define $C_k$ as the set of integers $n > \max(k,0)$ such that $a^{n-k+1} \equiv a \pmod{n}$ holds for all integers $a$. We establish various multiplicative properties of the elements in $C_k$ and give a sufficient…

A well-known conjecture asserts that there are infinitely many primes $p$ for which $p - 1$ is a perfect square. We obtain upper and lower bounds of matching order on the number of pairs of distinct primes $p,q \le x$ for which $(p - 1)(q -…
