Somer–Lucas Pseudoprime
In mathematics, specifically number theory, an odd number, odd and composite number ''N'' is a Somer–Lucas ''d''-pseudoprime (with given ''d'' ≥ 1) if there exists a nondegenerate Lucas sequence U(P,Q) with the discriminant D=P^2-4Q, such that \gcd(N,D)=1 and the rank appearance of ''N'' in the sequence ''U''(''P'', ''Q'') is :\frac\left(N-\left(\frac\right)\right), where \left(\frac\right) is the Jacobi symbol. Applications Unlike the standard Lucas pseudoprimes, there is no known efficient primality test using the Lucas ''d''-pseudoprimes. Hence they are not generally used for computation. See also Lawrence Somer, in his 1985 thesis, also defined the Somer d-pseudoprimes. They are described in brief on page 117 of Ribenbaum 1996.

Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...

Number Theory
Number theory is a branch of pure mathematics devoted primarily to the study of the integers and arithmetic functions. Number theorists study prime numbers as well as the properties of mathematical objects constructed from integers (for example, rational numbers), or defined as generalizations of the integers (for example, algebraic integers). Integers can be considered either in themselves or as solutions to equations (Diophantine geometry). Questions in number theory can often be understood through the study of Complex analysis, analytical objects, such as the Riemann zeta function, that encode properties of the integers, primes or other number-theoretic objects in some fashion (analytic number theory). One may also study real numbers in relation to rational numbers, as for instance how irrational numbers can be approximated by fractions (Diophantine approximation). Number theory is one of the oldest branches of mathematics alongside geometry. One quirk of number theory is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Odd Number
In mathematics, parity is the property of an integer of whether it is even or odd. An integer is even if it is divisible by 2, and odd if it is not.. For example, −4, 0, and 82 are even numbers, while −3, 5, 23, and 69 are odd numbers. The above definition of parity applies only to integer numbers, hence it cannot be applied to numbers with decimals or fractions like 1/2 or 4.6978. See the section "Higher mathematics" below for some extensions of the notion of parity to a larger class of "numbers" or in other more general settings. Even and odd numbers have opposite parities, e.g., 22 (even number) and 13 (odd number) have opposite parities. In particular, the parity of zero is even. Any two consecutive integers have opposite parity. A number (i.e., integer) expressed in the decimal numeral system is even or odd according to whether its last digit is even or odd. That is, if the last digit is 1, 3, 5, 7, or 9, then it is odd; otherwise it is even—as the last digit of any ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Composite Number
A composite number is a positive integer that can be formed by multiplying two smaller positive integers. Accordingly it is a positive integer that has at least one divisor other than 1 and itself. Every positive integer is composite, prime number, prime, or the Unit (ring theory), unit 1, so the composite numbers are exactly the numbers that are not prime and not a unit. E.g., the integer 14 is a composite number because it is the product of the two smaller integers 2 × 7 but the integers 2 and 3 are not because each can only be divided by one and itself. The composite numbers up to 150 are: :4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 30, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, 39, 40, 42, 44, 45, 46, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 60, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 68, 69, 70, 72, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 80, 81, 82, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 98, 99, 100, 102, 104, 105, 106, 108, 110, 111, 112, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, ...

Pseudoprime
A pseudoprime is a probable prime (an integer that shares a property common to all prime numbers) that is not actually prime. Pseudoprimes are classified according to which property of primes they satisfy. Some sources use the term pseudoprime to describe all probable primes, both composite numbers and actual primes. Pseudoprimes are of primary importance in public-key cryptography, which makes use of the difficulty of factoring large numbers into their prime factors. Carl Pomerance estimated in 1988 that it would cost $10 million to factor a number with 144 digits, and $100 billion to factor a 200-digit number (the cost today is dramatically lower but still prohibitively high). But finding two large prime numbers as needed for this use is also expensive, so various probabilistic primality tests are used, some of which in rare cases inappropriately deliver composite numbers instead of primes. On the other hand, deterministic primality tests, such as the AKS primality test, do not ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Lucas Sequence
In mathematics, the Lucas sequences U_n(P,Q) and V_n(P, Q) are certain constant-recursive integer sequences that satisfy the recurrence relation : x_n = P \cdot x_ - Q \cdot x_ where P and Q are fixed integers. Any sequence satisfying this recurrence relation can be represented as a linear combination of the Lucas sequences U_n(P, Q) and V_n(P, Q). More generally, Lucas sequences U_n(P, Q) and V_n(P, Q) represent sequences of polynomials in P and Q with integer coefficients. Famous examples of Lucas sequences include the Fibonacci numbers, Mersenne numbers, Pell numbers, Lucas numbers, Jacobsthal numbers, and a superset of Fermat numbers (see below). Lucas sequences are named after the French mathematician Édouard Lucas. Recurrence relations Given two integer parameters P and Q, the Lucas sequences of the first kind U_n(P,Q) and of the second kind V_n(P,Q) are defined by the recurrence relations: :\begin U_0(P,Q)&=0, \\ U_1(P,Q)&=1, \\ U_n(P,Q)&=P\cdot U_(P,Q)-Q\cdot ...

Jacobi Symbol
Jacobi symbol for various ''k'' (along top) and ''n'' (along left side). Only are shown, since due to rule (2) below any other ''k'' can be reduced modulo ''n''. Quadratic residues are highlighted in yellow — note that no entry with a Jacobi symbol of −1 is a quadratic residue, and if ''k'' is a quadratic residue modulo a coprime ''n'', then , but not all entries with a Jacobi symbol of 1 (see the and rows) are quadratic residues. Notice also that when either ''n'' or ''k'' is a square, all values are nonnegative. The Jacobi symbol is a generalization of the Legendre symbol. Introduced by Carl Gustav Jakob Jacobi, Jacobi in 1837, it is of theoretical interest in modular arithmetic and other branches of number theory, but its main use is in computational number theory, especially primality testing and integer factorization; these in turn are important in cryptography. Definition For any integer ''a'' and any positive odd integer ''n'', the Jacobi symbol is define ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Lucas Pseudoprime
Lucas pseudoprimes and Fibonacci pseudoprimes are composite integers that pass certain tests which all primes and very few composite numbers pass: in this case, criteria relative to some Lucas sequence. Baillie-Wagstaff-Lucas pseudoprimes Baillie and Wagstaff define Lucas pseudoprimes as follows: Given integers ''P'' and ''Q'', where ''P'' > 0 and D=P^2-4Q, let ''Uk''(''P'', ''Q'') and ''Vk''(''P'', ''Q'') be the corresponding Lucas sequences. Let ''n'' be a positive integer and let \left(\tfrac\right) be the Jacobi symbol. We define : \delta(n)=n-\left(\tfrac\right). If ''n'' is a prime that does not divide ''Q'', then the following congruence condition holds: If this congruence does ''not'' hold, then ''n'' is ''not'' prime. If ''n'' is ''composite'', then this congruence ''usually'' does not hold. These are the key facts that make Lucas sequences useful in primality testing. The congruence () represents one of two congruences defining a Frobenius pseudoprime. Hence, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
