Does any one have a quick algorithm on solving the above type of equation? More specifically, 25 + 36(R^2-N) is the problem; my current algorithm is as...
Hi all, (1) Proth's theorem states: Let n = h.2k+1 with 2k > h. If there is an integer a such that a(n-1)/2 = -1 (mod n), then n is prime. (2) Now, is there...
... a(n-1)/2 = 1 (mod n), then n is prime. ... As I indicated to the poster in a private response, disprove this statement with n=175, h=11, k=4, a=51....
