In many simple integral domains, such as $\mathbb{Z}$ or $\mathbb{Z}[i]$, there is a straightforward procedure to determine if an element is prime by simply reducing to a direct check of finitely many potential divisors. Despite the fact…
We provide two new bounds on the number of visible points on exponential curves modulo a prime for all choices of primes. We also provide one new bound on the number of visible points on exponential curves modulo a prime for almost all…
Divisibility tests are algorithms that can quickly decide if one integer is divisible by another. There are many tests but most are either of the trimming or summing variety. Our goals are to present Zbikowski's family of trimming tests as…
We introduce an elementary congruence-based procedure to look for q-th power multiples in arbitrary binary recurrence sequences (q>2). The procedure allows to prove that no such multiples exist in many instances.
Using polynomial evaluation, we give some useful criteria to answer questions about divisibility of polynomials. This allows us to develop interesting results concerning the prime elements in the domain of coefficients. In particular, it is…
The Baillie-PSW primality test combines Fermat and Lucas probable prime tests. It reports that a number is either composite or probably prime. No odd composite integer has been reported to pass this combination of primality tests if the…
Odd numbers can be indexed by the map k(n)=(n-3)/2, n belonging to 2N+3. We first propose a basic primality test using this index function that was first introduced in article (8). Input size of operations is reduced which improves…
In this note, we find a new inequality involving primes and deduce several Bonse-type inequalities.
In this note, we show that a part of [5, Remark 2.2] is not correct. Some conditions are given under which the same holds.
Generalized Cullen Numbers are positive integers of the form $C_b(n):=nb^n+1$. In this work we generalize some known divisibility properties of Cullen Numbers and present two primality tests for this family of integers. The first test is…
For n=1,2,3,... let p_n be the n-th prime. We mainly show that p_n>n+sum_{k=1}^n p_k/k for all n>124, and sum_{k=1}^n kp_k<n^2p_n/3 for all n>30.
We give estimates from below for the greatest prime factor of the n-th term of a binary recurrence sequence.
It is shown that the first $n$ prime numbers $p_1,...,p_n$ determine the next one by the recursion equation $$ p_{n+1} =\lim\limits_{s\to +\infty} [\prod\limits^n_{k=1} (1-\frac{1}{p^s_k}) \sum\limits^\infty_{j=1} \frac{1}{j^s} -1]^{-1/s}.…
This work is meant to demonstrate new class of prime numbers -- cyclic prime numbers, that can be derived from any prime number at certain numeric systems. Cyclic prime numbers are also related to the cyclic numbers and full reptend prime…
We develop a simple $O((\log n)^2)$ test as an extension of Proth's test for the primality for $p2^n+1$, $p>2^n$. This allows for the determination of large, non-Sierpinski primes $p$ and the smallest $n$ such that $p2^n+1$ is prime. If $p$…
We give a new sufficient condition which allows to test primality of Fermat's numbers. This characterization uses uniquely values at most equal to tested Fermat number. The robustness of this result is due to a strict use of elementary…
In Wilson's Theorem the primality of a number hinges on a congruence. We present a similar test where the primality of a number m hinges, instead, on the indivisibility of 4(m-5)! by m. One implication of this theorem is a necessary and…
The pentagonal number theorem is extended to the sequence of the number of integer partitions with all parts equal. The new pentagonal number theorem implies that the distribution of the primes is just a specific detail of the application…
We pose 100 new conjectures on representations involving primes or related things, which might interest number theorists and stimulate further research. Below are five typical examples: (i) For any positive integer $n$, there exists…
Let $\rho(n)$ denote the maximal number of different primes that may occur in the order of a finite solvable group $G$, all elements of which have orders divisible by at most $n$ distinct primes. We show that $\rho(n)\leq 5n$ for all $n\geq…
