Prime Number
A prime number (or a prime) is a natural number greater than 1 that is not a product of two smaller natural numbers. A natural number greater than 1 that is not prime is called a composite number. For example, 5 is prime because the only ways of writing it as a product, or , involve 5 itself. However, 4 is composite because it is a product (2 × 2) in which both numbers are smaller than 4. Primes are central in number theory because of the fundamental theorem of arithmetic: every natural number greater than 1 is either a prime itself or can be factorized as a product of primes that is unique up to their order. The property of being prime is called primality. A simple but slow method of checking the primality of a given number n, called trial division, tests whether n is a multiple of any integer between 2 and \sqrt. Faster algorithms include the Miller–Rabin primality test, which is fast but has a small chance of error, and the AKS primality test, which always pr ...

Sophie Germain Prime
In number theory, a prime number ''p'' is a if 2''p'' + 1 is also prime. The number 2''p'' + 1 associated with a Sophie Germain prime is called a . For example, 11 is a Sophie Germain prime and 2 × 11 + 1 = 23 is its associated safe prime. Sophie Germain primes are named after French mathematician Sophie Germain, who used them in her investigations of Fermat's Last Theorem. One attempt by Germain to prove Fermat’s Last Theorem was to let ''p'' be a prime number of the form 8''k'' + 7 and to let ''n'' = ''p'' – 1. In this case, x^n + y^n = z^n is unsolvable. Germain’s proof, however, remained unfinished. Through her attempts to solve Fermat's Last Theorem, Germain developed a result now known as Germain's Theorem which states that if ''p'' is an odd prime and 2''p'' + 1 is also prime, then ''p'' must divide ''x'', ''y'', or ''z.'' Otherwise, x^n + y^n \neq z^n. This case where ''p'' does not divide ''x'', ''y'', or ''z'' i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Chen Prime
A prime number ''p'' is called a Chen prime if ''p'' + 2 is either a prime or a product of two primes (also called a semiprime). The even number 2''p'' + 2 therefore satisfies Chen's theorem. The Chen primes are named after Chen Jingrun, who proved in 1966 that there are infinitely many such primes. This result would also follow from the truth of the twin prime conjecture as the lower member of a pair of twin primes is by definition a Chen prime. The first few Chen primes are : 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 47, 53, 59, 67, 71, 83, 89, 101, … . The first few Chen primes that are not the lower member of a pair of twin primes are :2, 7, 13, 19, 23, 31, 37, 47, 53, 67, 83, 89, 109, 113, 127, ... . The first few non-Chen primes are :43, 61, 73, 79, 97, 103, 151, 163, 173, 193, 223, 229, 241, … . All of the supersingular primes are Chen primes.

Eisenstein Prime
In mathematics, an Eisenstein prime is an Eisenstein integer : z = a + b\,\omega, \quad \text \quad \omega = e^, that is irreducible (or equivalently prime) in the ring-theoretic sense: its only Eisenstein divisors are the units , itself and its associates. The associates (unit multiples) and the complex conjugate of any Eisenstein prime are also prime. Characterization An Eisenstein integer is an Eisenstein prime if and only if either of the following (mutually exclusive) conditions hold: # is equal to the product of a unit and a natural prime of the form (necessarily congruent to ), # is a natural prime (necessarily congruent to 0 or ). It follows that the square of the absolute value of every Eisenstein prime is a natural prime or the square of a natural prime. In base 12 (written with digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, , ): The natural Eisenstein primes are exactly the natural primes ending with 5 or (i.e. the natural primes congruent to ).

Riesel Number
In mathematics, a Riesel number is an odd natural number ''k'' for which k\times2^n-1 is composite for all natural numbers ''n'' . In other words, when ''k'' is a Riesel number, all members of the following set are composite: :\left\. If the form is instead k\times2^n+1, then ''k'' is a Sierpinski number. Riesel Problem In 1956, Hans Riesel showed that there are an infinite number of integers ''k'' such that k\times2^n-1 is not prime for any integer ''n''. He showed that the number 509203 has this property, as does 509203 plus any positive integer multiple of 11184810. The Riesel problem consists in determining the smallest Riesel number. Because no covering set has been found for any ''k'' less than 509203, it is conjectured to be the smallest Riesel number. To check if there are ''k'' ''k'') :2, 3, 3, 39, 4, 4, 4, 5, 6, 5, 5, 6, 5, 5, 5, 7, 6, 6, 11, 7, 6, 29, 6, 6, 7, 6, 6, 7, 6, 6, 6, 8, 8, 7, 7, 10, 9, 7, 8, 9, 7, 8, 7, 7, 8, 7, 8, 10, 7, 7, 26, 9, 7, 8, 7, 7, 1 ...

Power Of Two
A power of two is a number of the form where is an integer, that is, the result of exponentiation with number two as the base and integer as the exponent. In a context where only integers are considered, is restricted to non-negative values, so there are 1, 2, and 2 multiplied by itself a certain number of times. The first ten powers of 2 for non-negative values of are: : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, ... Because two is the base of the binary numeral system, powers of two are common in computer science. Written in binary, a power of two always has the form 100...000 or 0.00...001, just like a power of 10 in the decimal system. Computer science Two to the exponent of , written as , is the number of ways the bits in a binary word of length can be arranged.

Matrix (mathematics)
In mathematics, a matrix (plural matrices) is a rectangular array or table of numbers, symbols, or expressions, arranged in rows and columns, which is used to represent a mathematical object or a property of such an object. For example, \begin1 & 9 & -13 \\20 & 5 & -6 \end is a matrix with two rows and three columns. This is often referred to as a "two by three matrix", a "-matrix", or a matrix of dimension . Without further specifications, matrices represent linear maps, and allow explicit computations in linear algebra. Therefore, the study of matrices is a large part of linear algebra, and most properties and operations of abstract linear algebra can be expressed in terms of matrices. For example, matrix multiplication represents composition of linear maps. Not all matrices are related to linear algebra. This is, in particular, the case in graph theory, of incidence matrices, and adjacency matrices. ''This article focuses on matrices related to linear algebra, and, unle ...

Atomic Mass
The atomic mass (''m''a or ''m'') is the mass of an atom. Although the SI unit of mass is the kilogram (symbol: kg), atomic mass is often expressed in the non-SI unit dalton (symbol: Da) – equivalently, unified atomic mass unit (u). 1 Da is defined as of the mass of a free carbon-12 atom at rest in its ground state. The protons and neutrons of the nucleus account for nearly all of the total mass of atoms, with the electrons and nuclear binding energy making minor contributions. Thus, the numeric value of the atomic mass when expressed in daltons has nearly the same value as the mass number. Conversion between mass in kilograms and mass in daltons can be done using the atomic mass constant m_= = 1\ \rm . The formula used for conversion is: :1\ = m_ = 1.660\ 539\ 066\ 60(50)\times 10^\ \mathrm , where M_ is the molar mass constant, N_ is the Avogadro constant, and M(^\mathrm) is the experimentally determined molar mass of carbon-12.

Isotope
Isotopes are two or more types of atoms that have the same atomic number (number of protons in their nuclei) and position in the periodic table (and hence belong to the same chemical element), and that differ in nucleon numbers (mass numbers) due to different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei. While all isotopes of a given element have almost the same chemical properties, they have different atomic masses and physical properties. The term isotope is formed from the Greek roots isos ( ἴσος "equal") and topos ( τόπος "place"), meaning "the same place"; thus, the meaning behind the name is that different isotopes of a single element occupy the same position on the periodic table. It was coined by Scottish doctor and writer Margaret Todd in 1913 in a suggestion to the British chemist Frederick Soddy. The number of protons within the atom's nucleus is called its atomic number and is equal to the number of electrons in the neutral (non-ionized) atom. Each atomic numbe ...
