241 (number)
241 (two hundred ndforty-one) is the natural number between 240 and 242. It is also a prime number. 241 is the larger of the twin primes (239, 241). Twin primes are pairs of primes separated by 2. 241 is a regular prime and a lucky prime. Since 241 = 15 × 24 + 1, it is a Proth prime. 241 is a repdigit In recreational mathematics, a repdigit or sometimes monodigit is a natural number composed of repeated instances of the same digit in a positional number system (often implicitly decimal). The word is a portmanteau of repeated and digit. Example ... in base 15 (111). 241 is the only known Lucas–Wieferich prime to (''U'', ''V'') = (3, −1). References Integers {{Num-stub ...

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 ...

Twin Prime
A twin prime is a prime number that is either 2 less or 2 more than another prime number—for example, either member of the twin prime pair (41, 43). In other words, a twin prime is a prime that has a prime gap of two. Sometimes the term ''twin prime'' is used for a pair of twin primes; an alternative name for this is prime twin or prime pair. Twin primes become increasingly rare as one examines larger ranges, in keeping with the general tendency of gaps between adjacent primes to become larger as the numbers themselves get larger. However, it is unknown whether there are infinitely many twin primes (the so-called twin prime conjecture) or if there is a largest pair. The breakthrough work of Yitang Zhang in 2013, as well as work by James Maynard, Terence Tao and others, has made substantial progress towards proving that there are infinitely many twin primes, but at present this remains unsolved. Properties Usually the pair (2, 3) is not considered to be a pair of twin primes. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Regular Prime
In number theory, a regular prime is a special kind of prime number, defined by Ernst Kummer in 1850 to prove certain cases of Fermat's Last Theorem. Regular primes may be defined via the divisibility of either class numbers or of Bernoulli numbers. The first few regular odd primes are: : 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 41, 43, 47, 53, 61, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97, 107, 109, 113, 127, 137, 139, 151, 163, 167, 173, 179, 181, 191, 193, 197, 199, ... . History and motivation In 1850, Kummer proved that Fermat's Last Theorem is true for a prime exponent ''p'' if ''p'' is regular. This focused attention on the irregular primes. In 1852, Genocchi was able to prove that the first case of Fermat's Last Theorem is true for an exponent ''p'', if is not an irregular pair. Kummer improved this further in 1857 by showing that for the "first case" of Fermat's Last Theorem (see Sophie Germain's theorem) it is sufficient to establish that either or fails to be an irregular pair.

Lucky Prime
In number theory, a lucky number is a natural number in a set which is generated by a certain "sieve". This sieve is similar to the Sieve of Eratosthenes that generates the primes, but it eliminates numbers based on their position in the remaining set, instead of their value (or position in the initial set of natural numbers). The term was introduced in 1956 in a paper by Gardiner, Lazarus, Metropolis and Ulam. They suggest also calling its defining sieve, "the sieve of Josephus Flavius" because of its similarity with the counting-out game in the Josephus problem. Lucky numbers share some properties with primes, such as asymptotic behaviour according to the prime number theorem; also, a version of Goldbach's conjecture has been extended to them. There are infinitely many lucky numbers. Twin lucky numbers and twin primes also appear to occur with similar frequency. However, if ''L''''n'' denotes the ''n''-th lucky number, and ''p''''n'' the ''n''-th prime, then ''L''''n'' > ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Proth Prime
A Proth number is a natural number ''N'' of the form N = k \times 2^n +1 where ''k'' and ''n'' are positive integers, ''k'' is odd and 2^n > k. A Proth prime is a Proth number that is prime. They are named after the French mathematician François Proth. The first few Proth primes are : 3, 5, 13, 17, 41, 97, 113, 193, 241, 257, 353, 449, 577, 641, 673, 769, 929, 1153, 1217, 1409, 1601, 2113, 2689, 2753, 3137, 3329, 3457, 4481, 4993, 6529, 7297, 7681, 7937, 9473, 9601, 9857 (). It is still an open question whether an infinite number of Proth primes exist. It was shown in 2022 that the reciprocal sum of Proth primes converges to a real number near 0.747392479, substantially less than the value of 1.093322456 for the reciprocal sum of Proth numbers. The primality of Proth numbers can be tested more easily than many other numbers of similar magnitude. Definition A Proth number takes the form N=k 2^n +1 where ''k'' and ''n'' are positive integers, k is odd and 2^n>k. A Proth prim ...

Repdigit
In recreational mathematics, a repdigit or sometimes monodigit is a natural number composed of repeated instances of the same digit in a positional number system (often implicitly decimal). The word is a portmanteau of repeated and digit. Examples are 11, 666, 4444, and 999999. All repdigits are palindromic numbers and are multiples of repunits. Other well-known repdigits include the repunit primes and in particular the Mersenne primes (which are repdigits when represented in binary). Repdigits are the representation in base B of the number x\frac where 0 1 and ''n'', ''m'' > 2 : **(''p'', ''x'', ''y'', ''m'', ''n'') = (31, 5, 2, 3, 5) corresponding to 31 = 111112 = 1115, and, **(''p'', ''x'', ''y'', ''m'', ''n'') = (8191, 90, 2, 3, 13) corresponding to 8191 = 11111111111112 = 11190, with 11111111111 is the repunit with thirteen digits 1. *For each sequence of ...

Lucas–Wieferich Prime
In number theory, a Wieferich prime is a prime number ''p'' such that ''p''2 divides , therefore connecting these primes with Fermat's little theorem, which states that every odd prime ''p'' divides . Wieferich primes were first described by Arthur Wieferich in 1909 in works pertaining to Fermat's Last Theorem, at which time both of Fermat's theorems were already well known to mathematicians. Since then, connections between Wieferich primes and various other topics in mathematics have been discovered, including other types of numbers and primes, such as Mersenne and Fermat numbers, specific types of pseudoprimes and some types of numbers generalized from the original definition of a Wieferich prime. Over time, those connections discovered have extended to cover more properties of certain prime numbers as well as more general subjects such as number fields and the ''abc'' conjecture. , the only known Wieferich primes are 1093 and 3511 .
