Pépin's Test
In mathematics, Pépin's test is a primality test, which can be used to determine whether a Fermat number is prime. It is a variant of Proth's test. The test is named for a French mathematician, Théophile Pépin. Description of the test Let F_n=2^+1 be the ''n''th Fermat number. Pépin's test states that for ''n'' > 0, :F_n is prime if and only if 3^\equiv-1\pmod. The expression 3^ can be evaluated modulo F_n by repeated squaring. This makes the test a fast polynomial-time algorithm. However, Fermat numbers grow so rapidly that only a handful of Fermat numbers can be tested in a reasonable amount of time and space. Other bases may be used in place of 3. These bases are: :3, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14, 20, 24, 27, 28, 39, 40, 41, 45, 48, 51, 54, 56, 63, 65, 75, 78, 80, 82, 85, 90, 91, 96, 102, 105, 108, 112, 119, 125, 126, 130, 147, 150, 156, 160, ... . The primes in the above sequence are called Elite primes, they are: :3, 5, 7, 41, 15361, 23041, 26881, 61441, 87041, 163841, 544001, ...
