Highly Composite Number
__FORCETOC__ A highly composite number is a positive integer with more divisors than any smaller positive integer has. The related concept of largely composite number refers to a positive integer which has at least as many divisors as any smaller positive integer. The name can be somewhat misleading, as the first two highly composite numbers (1 and 2) are not actually composite numbers; however, all further terms are. The late mathematician Jean-Pierre Kahane has suggested that Plato must have known about highly composite numbers as he deliberately chose 5040 as the ideal number of citizens in a city as 5040 has more divisors than any numbers less than it. Ramanujan wrote and titled his paper on the subject in 1915. Examples The initial or smallest 38 highly composite numbers are listed in the table below . The number of divisors is given in the column labeled ''d''(''n''). Asterisks indicate superior highly composite numbers. The divisors of the first 15 highly composite ...

Superior Highly Composite Number
In mathematics, a superior highly composite number is a natural number which has the highest ratio of its number of divisors to ''some'' positive power of itself than any other number. It is a stronger restriction than that of a highly composite number, which is defined as having more divisors than any smaller positive integer. The first 10 superior highly composite numbers and their factorization are listed. For a superior highly composite number ''n'' there exists a positive real number ''ε'' such that for all natural numbers ''k'' smaller than ''n'' we have :\frac\geq\frac and for all natural numbers ''k'' larger than ''n'' we have :\frac>\frac where ''d(n)'', the divisor function, denotes the number of divisors of ''n''. The term was coined by Ramanujan (1915). For example, the number with the most divisors per square root of the number itself is 12; this can be demonstrated using some highly composites near 12. \frac\approx 1.414, \frac=1.5, \frac\approx 1.633, \ ...

24 (number)
24 (twenty-four) is the natural number following 23 and preceding 25. The SI prefix for 1024 is yotta (Y), and for 10−24 (i.e., the reciprocal of 1024) yocto (y). These numbers are the largest and smallest number to receive an SI prefix to date. In mathematics 24 is an even composite number, with 2 and 3 as its distinct prime factors. It is the first number of the form 2''q'', where ''q'' is an odd prime. It is the smallest number with exactly eight positive divisors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24; thus, it is a highly composite number, having more divisors than any smaller number. Furthermore, it is an abundant number, since the sum of its proper divisors ( 36) is greater than itself, as well as a superabundant number. In number theory and algebra *24 is the smallest 5- hemiperfect number, as it has a half-integer abundancy index: *:1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 12 + 24 = 60 =  × 24 *24 is a semiperfect number, since adding up all the proper divisors of 24 ...

Prime Factor
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 pro ...

Smooth Number
In number theory, an ''n''-smooth (or ''n''-friable) number is an integer whose prime factors are all less than or equal to ''n''. For example, a 7-smooth number is a number whose every prime factor is at most 7, so 49 = 72 and 15750 = 2 × 32 × 53 × 7 are both 7-smooth, while 11 and 702 = 2 × 33 × 13 are not 7-smooth. The term seems to have been coined by Leonard Adleman. Smooth numbers are especially important in cryptography, which relies on factorization of integers. The 2-smooth numbers are just the powers of 2, while 5-smooth numbers are known as regular numbers. Definition A positive integer is called B-smooth if none of its prime factors are greater than B. For example, 1,620 has prime factorization 22 × 34 × 5; therefore 1,620 is 5-smooth because none of its prime factors are greater than 5. This definition includes numbers that lack some of the smaller prime factors; for example, both 10 and 12 are 5-smooth, even though they miss out the prime factors 3 and 5, resp ...

180 (number)
180 (one hundred ndeighty) is the natural number following 179 and preceding 181. In mathematics 180 is an abundant number, with its proper divisors summing up to 366. 180 is also a highly composite number, a positive integer with more divisors than any smaller positive integer. One of the consequences of 180 having so many divisors is that it is a practical number, meaning that any positive number smaller than 180 that is not a divisor of 180 can be expressed as the sum of some of 180's divisors. 180 is a Harshad number and a refactorable number. 180 is the sum of two square numbers: 122 + 62. It can be expressed as either the sum of six consecutive prime numbers: 19 + 23 + 29 + 31 + 37 + 41, or the sum of eight consecutive prime numbers: 11 + 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29 + 31 + 37. 180 is an Ulam number, which can be expressed as a sum of earlier terms in the Ulam sequence only as 177 + 3. 180 is a 61- gonal number.
