The Pseudoprimes to 25 • 109

چکیده
The odd composite n < 25 • 10 such that 2n_1 = 1 (mod n) have been determined and their distribution tabulated. We investigate the properties of three special types of pseudoprimes: Euler pseudoprimes, strong pseudoprimes, and Carmichael numbers. The theoretical upper bound and the heuristic lower bound due to Erdös for the counting function of the Carmichael numbers are both sharpened. Several new quick tests for primality are proposed, including some which combine pseudoprimes with Lucas sequences.

Cipolla Pseudoprimes
We consider the pseudoprimes that M. Cipolla constructed. We call such pseudoprimes Cipolla pseudoprimes. In this paper we find infinitely many Lucas and Lehmer pseudoprimes that are analogous to Cipolla pseudoprimes.
متن کاملFrobenius pseudoprimes
The proliferation of probable prime tests in recent years has produced a plethora of definitions with the word “pseudoprime” in them. Examples include pseudoprimes, Euler pseudoprimes, strong pseudoprimes, Lucas pseudoprimes, strong Lucas pseudoprimes, extra strong Lucas pseudoprimes and Perrin pseudoprimes. Though these tests represent a wealth of ideas, they exist as a hodge-podge of definiti...
متن کاملSome new kinds of pseudoprimes
We define some new kinds of pseudoprimes to several bases, which generalize strong pseudoprimes. We call them Sylow p-pseudoprimes and elementary Abelian p-pseudoprimes. It turns out that every n < 1012, which is a strong pseudoprime to bases 2, 3 and 5, is not a Sylow p-pseudoprime to two of these bases for an appropriate prime p|n− 1. We also give examples of strong pseudoprimes to many bases...
متن کاملOn the Distributions of Pseudoprimes, Carmichael Numbers, and Strong Pseudoprimes
Building upon the work of Carl Pomerance and others, the central purpose of this discourse is to discuss the distribution of base-2 pseudoprimes, as well as improve upon Pomerance's conjecture regarding the Carmichael number counting function [8]. All conjectured formulas apply to any base b ≥ 2 for x ≥ x0(b). A table of base-2 pseudoprime, 2-strong pseudoprime, and Carmichael number counts up ...
متن کاملNotes on some new kinds of pseudoprimes
J. Browkin defined in his recent paper (Math. Comp. 73 (2004), pp. 1031–1037) some new kinds of pseudoprimes, called Sylow p-pseudoprimes and elementary Abelian p-pseudoprimes. He gave examples of strong pseudoprimes to many bases which are not Sylow p-pseudoprime to two bases only, where p = 2 or 3. In this paper, in contrast to Browkin’s examples, we give facts and examples which are unfavora...
