In this paper, two approximation algorithms are given. Let N be an odd composite number. The algorithms give new directions regarding primality test of given N. The first algorithm is given using a new method called digital coding method.…

Let $(M_n)_{n\geq0}$ be the Mersenne sequence defined by $M_n=2^n-1$. Let $\omega(n)$ be the number of distinct prime divisors of $n.$ In this short note, we present a description of the Mersenne numbers satisfying $\omega(M_n)\leq3$.…

The Mersenne primes are primes which can be written as some prime power of 2 minus 1. These primes were studied from antiquity in that their close connection with perfect numbers and even to present day in that their easiness for primality…

It has long been known that sequences such as the powers of $2$ and the factorials satisfy Benford's Law; that is, leading digits in these sequences occur with frequencies given by $P(d)=\log_{10}(1+1/d)$, $d=1,2,\dots,9$. In this paper, we…

Lucas-Lehmer test is the current standard algorithm used for testing the primality of Mersenne numbers, but it may have limitations in terms of its efficiency and accuracy. Developing new algorithms or improving upon existing ones could…

New Mersenne conjectures. The problems of simplicity, common prime divisors and free from squares of numbers $L(n) = 2^{2n}\pm2^n\pm1$ are investigated. Wonderful formulas $gcd $ for numbers $L (n) $ and numbers repunit are proved.

James Maynard has taken the analytic number theory world by storm in the last decade, proving several important and surprising theorems, resolving questions that had seemed far out of reach. He is perhaps best known for his work on small…

We extend the necessity part of Lucas Lehmer iteration for testing Mersenne prime to all base and uniformly for both generalized Mersenne and Wagstaff numbers(the later correspond to negative base). The role of the quadratic iteration $x…

This paper first proves what the author called the Eight Levels Theorem and then highlights a new explicit expansion approach to Lucas-Lehmer primality test for Mersenne primes and gives a new criterion for Mersenne compositeness. Also, we…

In his book "250 Problems in Elementary Number Theory", W.Sierpinski shows that the numbers 1+2^(2^n)+2^(2^n+1) are divisible by 21; for n=1,2,.... In this paper, we prove a similar but more general result.Consider the natural numbers of…

According to the Wagstaff heuristic, the probability that a Mersenne number $M_p = 2^p-1$ is prime mainly depends on the size of the exponent $p$. We investigate whether the secondary arithmetic structure in $p-1$ is linked to noticeable…

In this research paper, relationship between every Mersenne prime and certain Natural numbers is explored. We begin by proving that every Mersenne prime is of the form {4n + 3,for some integer 'n'} and generalize the result to all powers of…

Prime numbers have fascinated mathematicians since antiquity, with ongoing efforts to uncover both their properties and ever-larger examples. While giant primes rarely aid cryptography, they find use in areas such as locally decodable…

We show that integer partitions, the fundamental building blocks in additive number theory, detect prime numbers in an unexpected way. Answering a question of Schneider, we show that the primes are the solutions to special equations in…

The Lucas-Lehmer (LL) primality test for Mersenne numbers is the fastest known primality test. In 1969, Hans Riesel published a modification of LL to test numbers of the form $N = h \cdot 2^n - 1$, where $h < 2^n$ is an odd integer and $n…

We show that for integers $n$, whose ratios of consecutive divisors are bounded above by an arbitrary constant, the normal order of the number of prime factors is $C \log \log n$, where $C=(1-e^{-\gamma})^{-1} = 2.280...$ and $\gamma$ is…

A composite number $n$ is called Lehmer when $\phi(n) | n - 1$, where $\phi$ is the Euler totient function. In 1932, D.~H.~Lehmer conjectured that there are no composite Lehmer numbers and showed that Lehmer numbers must be odd and…

Denote $f(n):=\sum_{1\le k\le n} \tau(2^k-1)$, where $\tau$ is the number of divisors function. Motivated by a question of Paul Erd\H{o}s, we show that the sequence of ratios $f(2n)/f(n)$ is unbounded. We also present conditional results on…

Let $x$ be a positive integer. We give an asymptotic result for $\omega(\operatorname{lcm}(m,n))$ summed over all positive integers $m$ and $n$ with $mn \le x$. This answers an open question posed in a recent paper.

It is an open problem whether $ \binom{2n}{n} $ is divisible by 4 or 9 for all $n>256$. In connection with this, we prove that for a fixed uneven $m$ the asymptotic density of $k$'s such that $ m \nmid \binom{2^{k+1}}{2^{k}} $ is 0. To do…
