Primes of the Form N!1 PRIMES OF THE FORM N!1 Several years ago we first made the observation that certain the factorial terms N!+1 and N!-1 often have the form of primes such as 3!-1=5, 3!+1=7, 4!-1=23. We want in this note to show why such primes exist and that there probably are an infinite number of these prime sub-group members. Let us begin by writing out the first fifteen integers and their factorial form and corresponding exponential vectors. We get the following table- N N! Exponential Vector 1 1 [0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0] 2 2 [1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0] 3 6 [1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0] 4 24 [3 1 0 0 0 0 0 0] 5 120 [3 1 1 0 0 0 0 0] 6 720 [4 2 1 0 0 0 0 0] 7 5040 [4 2 1 1 0 0 0 0] 8 40320 [7 2 1 1 0 0 0 0] 9 362880 [7 4 1 1 0 0 0 0] 10 3628800 [8 4 2 1 0 0 0 0] 11 39916800 [8 4 2 1 1 0 0 0] 12 479001600 [10 5 2 1 1 0 0 0] 13 6227020800 [10 5 2 1 1 1 0 0] 14 87178291200 [11 5 2 2 1 1 0 0] 15 1307674368000 [11 6 3 2 1 1 0 0] What is noticeable at once from the exponential vector forms shown is that N! is dominated by two taken to a positive power with three following at a lower power and five at a still lower power. We have encountered this type of behavior before when dealing with super-composites S. Such super-composites have the interesting property that their graph of f(S+n) versus n will have a peak when n=0. Here f(n) is the number fraction(NUMFRAC) defined as- f(x)= [sigma(x)-x-1]/x , with sigma(x) being the sum of divisors term of number theory. The interesting thing about NUMFRAC is that it vanishes when x is a prime and has values f(x)>>1 when x is a super-composite. To test out the presence of a peak in an x versus f(x) plot for N! we choose x=11!=39916800. A plot follows- This clearly shows the super-composite nature of 11!. The peak in the graph stems from the fact that 11! has a total of eleven divisors while its neighbor at 11!+1 is a prime so that f(11!+1)=0. The neighbor at 11!-1 has just six divisors 1,13,17,23,7853. and 39916800. The presence of a prime number in the immediate vicinity of a super-composite was noted in an earlier article and should continue to hold for N!1. We will call these the N! primes. To find them one carries out the search program- for N from 1 to b do {N,isprime(N!-1),isprime(N!+1)}od; In the present search we will stop with b=600 since the evaluations beyond this point takes too long for my computer program. Here are the results for the primes found- For N!-1 Primes: N={3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 30, 32, 33, 38, 94, 166, 324, 379, 469, 546, --} For N!+1 Primes: N={1, 2, 3, 11, 27, 37, 41, 73,77, 116, 154, 320, 399, 427,..} There is no obvious link between these primes other than to note that the number of N!+1 and N!-1primes are about the same, that the evaluation times and the prime spacings increase with N. The primes will become huge with larger N. So, for example, the prime 546!-1= 141302009261418325453762621393526286698658617796079910071353871488907640 504160743565501241236107733762080837422133568434484213467457560621538131 284091550631968816592748754460044234605778793037038634578162615257746896 342308546754776364849349150715175577496877924111556740124186753117294177 162303783405503829723023736326990734833969973121886593758921817486418079 092325492863765948445727040946819291138129804200523981866521636537165676 001267152151758174473660767772438139761519901508251733325317410707450984 627544775891183776230678501637671689726049915871033588824272610663202323 719389931283164345628668801970555064368945390634202638535930076803929062 184736870310291943624402875877497305289749392357778468456405062145336924 250773407066015135454416984550131804906976797622941301057536164271657477 854025104530247400241587703885280095204104624235632766825184645847127845 152855411530623429061372120607469651273815795437429759478958062539197279 629575104299984571584633649528868101236905793259525917436877798780909275 667980803203926354424450148098596386681966959342498581232330994696677186 100809764161773397785695845695608487026255462399999999999999999999999999 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 999999999999999999999999999999999999. Using the Stirling approximation we find its value to be about [546!-1] sqrt(2546)546^(546)*exp(-546) -1=0.1412x10^1260. That this 1260 digit long number is a factorial prime is verified by the evaluation of isprime(546!-1). It took 69 seconds for our program to come up with the answer ‘yes’. A good test of computer power would be to see the time it takes to carry out this last calculation. With more powerful super-computers many additional factorial primes will be found since one suspects that the total number of this subgroup of primes is infinite. As a final remark, the thirty one factorial primes N!1 we have found have taken us up to a 1260 digit long number at 546!-1. This should be compared to Mersenne Primes where the 19th prime found is 2^(4253)-1 which has about 1281 digits. Hence the prime number density for factorial primes is larger than that for Mersenne Primes. U.H.Kurzweg October 27, 2019 Gainesville, Florida .

  • A NOTE on the GAUSSIAN MOAT PROBLEM Real Axis
    A NOTE ON THE GAUSSIAN MOAT PROBLEM MADHUPARNA DAS Abstract. The Gaussian moat problem asks whether it is possible to find an infinite sequence of distinct Gaussian prime numbers such that the difference between consecutive numbers in the sequence is bounded. In this paper, we have proved that the answer is ‘No’, that is an infinite sequence of distinct Gaussian prime numbers can not be bounded by an absolute constant, for the Gaussian primes p = a2 + b2 with a, b =6 0. We consider each prime (a, b) as a lattice point on the complex plane and use their properties to prove the main result. 1. Introduction Primes are always interesting topics for mathematicians. After lots of research work still, we don’t have any explicit formula for the distribution of the natural prime numbers. Prime number theorem gives an asymptotic formula for primes with some bounded error. Also, the prime number theorem implies that there are arbitrarily large gaps in the sequence of prime numbers, and this can also be proved directly: for any n, the n 1 consecutive numbers n!+2,n!+3,...,n!+ n are all composite. It’s very easy for natural primes− that it is not possible to walk to infinity with stepping on the natural prime numbers with bounded length gap. Now we can think about the same problem for the complex prime numbers or explicitly for ‘Gaussian Primes’. So, the question says: “Whether it is possible to find an infinite sequence of distinct Gaussian prime numbers such that the difference between consecutive numbers in the sequence is bounded.

  • Searching for a Counterexample to Kurepa's Conjecture
    SEARCHING FOR A COUNTEREXAMPLE TO KUREPA'S CONJECTURE VLADICA ANDREJIC´ AND MILOS TATAREVIC Abstract. Kurepa's conjecture states that there is no odd prime p that di- vides !p = 0!+1!+···+(p−1)!. We search for a counterexample to this conjec- ture for all p < 234. We introduce new optimization techniques and perform the computation using graphics processing units. Additionally, we consider the generalized Kurepa's left factorial given by !kn = (0!)k +(1!)k +···+((n−1)!)k, and show that for all integers 1 < k < 100 there exists an odd prime p such that p j!kp. 1. Introduction ¯Duro Kurepa defines an arithmetic function !n, known as the left factorial, by !n = 0! + 1! + ··· + (n − 1)! [14]. He conjectures that GCD(!n; n!) = 2 holds for all integers n > 1. This conjecture, originally introduced in 1971 [14], is also listed in [10, Section B44] and remains an open problem. For additional information, the reader can consult the expository article [12]. It is easy to see that the statement above is equivalent to the statement that !n is not divisible by n > 2, which can be reduced to primes. Thus, Kurepa's conjecture states that there is no odd prime p such that p divides !p. There have been numerous attempts to solve this problem, mostly by searching for a counterexample. The results of these attempts are listed in the accompanying table. Upper Bound Author Year p < 3 · 105 Z.ˇ Mijajlovi´c[16] 1990 p < 106 G. Gogi´c[9] 1991 p < 3 · 106 B.

  • Factoring of Large Numbers
    FACTORING OF LARGE NUMBERS It is well known that any number N can be represented as the product of a finite number of primes taken to the specified integer powers. Thus- 13867 = (7)2 (283) with sqrt(13867)= 117.756.. 23974723= (151) (179) (887) with sqrt(23974723)= 4896.398.. 43567217=(5021) (8677) with sqrt(43567217)= 6600.546.. 67537=67537 The first three examples represent composite numbers while the last is a prime. Now we know from some of our earlier notes that all primes above p=3 have the form- p=6n1 , where n=1,2,3,4,… This is a necessary but not sufficient condition for primes since there can be many composite numbers which also have this same form. We want to show here how to distinguish between a composite and prime number satisfying the 6n1 condition and from this deduce the product form of any number N. Since we don’t know before hand into how many prime terms a number N will factor, we begin with the safe bet that if N is a semi-prime N=pq, then p<sqrt(N), provided that p<q. If it is composed of three terms N=pqr, even when some of the factors appear multiple times, then it is save to assume that at least one of the primes is less than N1/3 and so on. So we definitely can state, regardless of the number of prime products present in N, at least one of them will always be less than the square-root of N unless the number itself is already a prime.

    A Primer on Prime Numbers Prime Numbers “Prime numbers are the very atoms of arithmetic. The primes are the jewels studded throughout the vast expanse of the infinite universe of numbers that mathematicians have studied down the centuries.” Marcus du Sautoy, The Music of the Primes 2 • Early Primes • Named Primes • Hunting for Primes • Visualizing Primes • Harnessing Primes 3 Ishango bone The Ishango bone is a bone tool, dated to the Upper Paleolithic era, about 18,000 to 20,000 BC. It is a dark brown length of bone, the fibula of a baboon, It has a series of tally marks carved in three columns running the length of the tool Note: image is 4 reversed A History and Exploration of Prime Numbers • In the book How Mathematics Happened: The First 50,000 Years, Peter Rudman argues that the development of the concept of prime numbers could have come about only after the concept of division, which he dates to after 10,000 BC, with prime numbers probably not being understood until about 500 BC. He also writes that "no attempt has been made to explain why a tally of something should exhibit multiples of two, prime numbers between 10 and 20,… Left column 5 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ishango_bone Euclid of Alexandria 325-265 B.C. • The only man to summarize all the mathematical knowledge of his times. • In Proposition 20 of Book IX of the Elements, Euclid proved that there are infinitely many prime numbers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclid 6 Eratosthenes of Cyrene 276-194 B.C.
