Improving on some recent results of Matom\"aki and of Wright, we show that the number of Carmichael numbers to $X$ in a coprime residue class exceeds $X^{1/(6\log\log\log X)}$ for all sufficiently large $X$ depending on the modulus of the…
We prove that for each odd number k, the sequence (k2^n+1)_{n\ge 1} contains only a finite number of Carmichael numbers. We also prove that k=27 is the smallest value for which such a sequence contains some Carmichael number.
We define a variant of the Miller-Rabin primality test, which is in between Miller-Rabin and Fermat in terms of strength. We show that this test has infinitely many "Carmichael" numbers. We show that the test can also be thought of as a…
We present a quantum probabilistic algorithm which tests with a polynomial computational complexity whether a given composite number is of the Carmichael type. We also suggest a quantum algorithm which could verify a conjecture by…
Natural numbers from 0 to 11111 are written in terms of 1 to 9 in two different ways. The first one in increasing order of 1 to 9, and the second one in decreasing order. This is done by using the operations of addition, multiplication,…
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…
Weird numbers are abundant numbers that are not pseudoperfect. Since their introduction, the existence of odd weird numbers has been an open problem. In this work, we describe our computational effort to search for odd weird numbers, which…
The calculation of many and large Perrin pseudoprimes is a challenge. This is mainly due to their rarity. Perrin pseudoprimes are one of the rarest known pseudoprimes. In order to calculate many such large numbers, one needs not only a fast…
We extend our previous work on odd spoof multiperfect numbers to the case where spoof factor multiplicities exceed $2$. This leads to the identification of $11$ new integers that would be odd multiperfect numbers if one of their prime…
We propose a generalization of Carmichael numbers, where the multiplicative group $\mathbb G_\mathrm{m} = \mathrm{GL}(1)$ is replaced by $\mathrm{GL}(m)$ for $m\geq 2$. We prove basic properties of these families of numbers and give some…
We have presented a multivariate polynomial function termed as factor elimination function,by which, we can generate prime numbers. This function's mapping behavior can explain the irregularities in the occurrence of prime numbers on the…
The primary Carmichael numbers were recently introduced as a special subset of the Carmichael numbers. A primary Carmichael number $m$ has the unique property that $s_p(m) = p$ holds for each prime factor $p$, where $s_p(m)$ is the sum of…
Alford, Granville, and Pomerance proved that there are infinitely many Carmichael numbers. In the same paper, they ask if a statement analogous to Bertrand's postulate could be proven for Carmichael numbers. In this paper, we answer this…
We compute all primes up to $6.25\times 10^{28}$ of the form $m^2+1$. Calculations using this list verify, up to our bound, a less famous conjecture of Goldbach. We introduce `Goldbach champions' as part of the verification process and…
We give an upper bound for the number elliptic Carmichael numbers $n \le x$ that have recently been introduced by J. H. Silverman. We also discuss several possible ways for further improvements.
We study the question of whether for each n there is another integer m with lambda(m)=lambda(n), where lambda is Carmichael's function. We give a "near" proof of the fact that this is the case unconditionally, and a complete conditional…
The notion of chiral prime concatenations is studied as a recursive construction of prime numbers starting from a seed set and with appropriate blocks to define the primality growth, generation by generation, either from the right or from…
In this paper, we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the Lucas-Carmichael integers in terms of the sum of base-$p$ digits. We also study some interesting properties of such integers. Finally, we prove that there are infinitely…
We speculate on the distribution of primes in exponentially growing, linear recurrence sequences $(u_n)_{n\geq 0}$ in the integers. By tweaking a heuristic which is successfully used to predict the number of prime values of polynomials, we…
Throughout history, recreational mathematics has always played a prominent role in advancing research. Following in this tradition, in this paper we extend some recent work with crazy sequential representations of numbers- equations made of…
