Wieferich and Mersenne primes for function fields

Number Theory 2025-12-10 v1

Abstract

We study properties of recently introduced Wieferich primes for Drinfeld modules, as their relation with Fermat equations and finitess or non-finiteness of their number. We also introduce Mersenne numbers for Drinfeld modules, and study the links between these two notions.
