... PFGW was exploited for the inital search for a PRP because of it's gain in speed in this respect -- for 2^n+-k (k< about 43 bits.) I used Prime95.exe to...

N=2^64695-2^15-1 is prime. Paul Underwood discovered that N is probably prime, as part of a large trawl of candidates of his favourite form f(a,b)=2^a-2^b-1 ...
... I was wondering after I wrote this, and thought maybe somebody would have an answer, or maybe I'm just crazy... Assume we have a large odd composite number...

Thanks. My proof went along these lines: If gcd(kx,x+1)>gcd(k,x+1), then gcd(x,x+1)>1 The theorem is extensible into: gcd(kx,y)=gcd(k,y).gcd(x,y) if gcd(x,y)=1...

Carmichael39;s theorem is _far_ more general than that. Knott gave only the Fibonacci case p=1,q=-1. In general consider U(p,q,n) with p>0 and d=p^2-4*q>0. Then...

Anyone know why 4ab+3(a+b)+2 is never a square? It comes from looking at the 'alternative39; 5-squares conjecture, find a set a,b,c,d such that ab-1=u^2 ac-1=v^2...
... Rewrite this as: N = (4*a+3) * b + (3*a+2) In order for N to be a square, we must have (3*a+2) be a quadratic residue modulo (4*a+3). Note that (3*a+2) is...
