Super-prime
Super-prime numbers, also known as higher-order primes or prime-indexed primes (PIPs), are the subsequence of prime numbers that occupy prime-numbered positions within the sequence of all prime numbers. The subsequence begins :3, 5, 11, 17, 31, 41, 59, 67, 83, 109, 127, 157, 179, 191, 211, 241, 277, 283, 331, 353, 367, 401, 431, 461, 509, 547, 563, 587, 599, 617, 709, 739, 773, 797, 859, 877, 919, 967, 991, ... . That is, if ''p''(''n'') denotes the ''n''th prime number, the numbers in this sequence are those of the form ''p''(''p''(''n'')). used a computer-aided proof (based on calculations involving the subset sum problem The subset sum problem (SSP) is a decision problem in computer science.

Subsequence
In mathematics, a subsequence of a given sequence is a sequence that can be derived from the given sequence by deleting some or no elements without changing the order of the remaining elements. For example, the sequence \langle A,B,D \rangle is a subsequence of \langle A,B,C,D,E,F \rangle obtained after removal of elements C, E, and F. The relation of one sequence being the subsequence of another is a preorder. Subsequences can contain consecutive elements which were not consecutive in the original sequence. A subsequence which consists of a consecutive run of elements from the original sequence, such as \langle B,C,D \rangle, from \langle A,B,C,D,E,F \rangle, is a substring. The substring is a refinement of the subsequence. The list of all subsequences for the word "apple" would be "''a''", "''ap''", "''al''", "''ae''", "''app''", "''apl''", "''ape''", "''ale''", "''appl''", "''appe''", "''aple''", "''apple''", "''p''", "''pp''", "''pl''", "''pe''", "''ppl''", "''ppe''", "''ple' ...

Prime Numbers
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 ...

Subset Sum Problem
The subset sum problem (SSP) is a decision problem in computer science. In its most general formulation, there is a multiset S of integers and a target-sum T, and the question is to decide whether any subset of the integers sum to precisely T''.'' The problem is known to be NP. Moreover, some restricted variants of it are NP-complete too, for example: * The variant in which all inputs are positive. * The variant in which inputs may be positive or negative, and T=0. For example, given the set \, the answer is ''yes'' because the subset \ sums to zero. * The variant in which all inputs are positive, and the target sum is exactly half the sum of all inputs, i.e., T = \frac(a_1+\dots+a_n) . This special case of SSP is known as the partition problem. SSP can also be regarded as an optimization problem: find a subset whose sum is at most ''T'', and subject to that, as close as possible to ''T''. It is NP-hard, but there are several algorithms that can solve it reasonably quickly in pra ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Bertrand's Postulate
In number theory, Bertrand's postulate is a theorem stating that for any integer n > 3, there always exists at least one prime number p with :n < p < 2n - 2. A less restrictive formulation is: for every , there is always at least one prime such that : Another formulation, where is the -th prime, is: for : This statement was first d in 1845 by (1822–1900). Bertrand himself verified his statement for all integers . His conjecture was completely [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Small Set (combinatorics)
In combinatorial mathematics, a large set of positive integers :S = \ is one such that the infinite sum of the reciprocals :\frac+\frac+\frac+\frac+\cdots diverges. A small set is any subset of the positive integers that is not large; that is, one whose sum of reciprocals converges. Large sets appear in the Müntz–Szász theorem and in the Erdős conjecture on arithmetic progressions. Examples * Every finite subset of the positive integers is small. * The set \ of all positive integers is known to be a large set; this statement is equivalent to the divergence of the harmonic series. More generally, any arithmetic progression (i.e., a set of all integers of the form ''an'' + ''b'' with ''a'' ≥ 1, ''b'' ≥ 1 and ''n'' = 0, 1, 2, 3, ...) is a large set. * The set of square numbers is small (see Basel problem). So is the set of cube numbers, the set of 4th powers, and so on. More generally, the set of positive i ...

Palindromic Prime
In mathematics, a palindromic prime (sometimes called a palprime) is a prime number that is also a palindromic number. Palindromicity depends on the base of the number system and its notational conventions, while primality is independent of such concerns. The first few decimal palindromic primes are: : 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 101, 131, 151, 181, 191, 313, 353, 373, 383, 727, 757, 787, 797, 919, 929, … Except for 11, all palindromic primes have an odd number of digits, because the divisibility test for 11 tells us that every palindromic number with an even number of digits is a multiple of 11. It is not known if there are infinitely many palindromic primes in base 10. The largest known is :101888529 - 10944264 - 1. which has 1,888,529 digits, and was found on 18 October 2021 by Ryan Propper and Serge Batalov. On the other hand, it is known that, for any base, almost all palindromic numbers are composite, i.e. the ratio between palindromic composites and all palindromes below ''n ...

Journal Of Integer Sequences
The ''Journal of Integer Sequences'' is a peer-reviewed open-access academic journal in mathematics, specializing in research papers about integer sequences. It was founded in 1998 by Neil Sloane. Sloane had previously published two books on integer sequences, and in 1996 he founded the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS). Needing an outlet for research papers concerning the sequences he was collecting in the OEIS, he founded the journal. Since 2002 the journal has been hosted by the David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science at the University of Waterloo, with Waterloo professor Jeffrey Shallit as its editor-in-chief. There are no page charges for authors, and all papers are free to all readers. The journal publishes approximately 50–75 papers annually.. In most years from 1999 to 2014, SCImago Journal Rank has ranked the ''Journal of Integer Sequences'' as a third-quartile journal in discrete mathematics and combinatorics. It is indexed by ''Mathematical Revie ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
