Determining whether a given integer is prime or composite is a basic task in number theory. We present a primality test based on quantum order finding and the converse of Fermat's theorem. For an integer $N$, the test tries to find an…

We take the pre-sieved set to be all natural numbers $N=\{1,2,3,\dots\}$ with a sieve system:single sieve,double sieve,.... With single sieve, i.e. , remove out the multiple of a prime, we derive all the primes. With double sieve, i.e. ,…

We describe a primality test for number $M=(2p)^{2^n}+1$ with odd prime $p$ and positive integer $n$. And we also give the special primality criteria for all odd primes $p$ not exceeding 19. All these primality tests run in polynomial time…

We study pairs of consecutive odd numbers through a straightforward indexing. We focus in particular on twin primes and their distribution. With a counting argument, we calculate the limit of an alternating sum that is equal to 1 which…

Erd\H{o}s and Hall defined a pair $(m, n)$ of positive integers to be interlocking, if between any pair of consecutive divisors (both larger than $1$) of $n$ (resp. $m$) there is a divisor of $m$ (resp. $n$). A positive integer is said to…

A primorial prime is a prime number of the form $p_n\# \pm 1$ where $p_n\#$ denotes the product of all primes less than or equal to $p_{n}$, the $n$-th prime. We show that the probability along the lines of Mertens' Theorem that either…
