It is not a prime, since it equals 11·31, but it satisfies Fermat's little theorem: 2 340 ≡ 1 (mod 341) and thus passes the Fermat primality test for the base 2. Pseudoprimes to base 2 are sometimes called Sarrus numbers , after P. F. Sarrus who discovered that 341 has this property, Poulet numbers , after P. Poulet who made a table of such ...

The free will theorem says that if we have free will, then particles must have free will. This presumably is counterintuitive. It makes no claim about a world in which we don't have free will (a deterministic world). There's no way to argue for free will on the basis of this theorem - and yet, this is what the section claims, without any ...
This conjecture is called "weak" because if Goldbach's strong conjecture (concerning sums of two primes) is proven, then this would also be true. For if every even number greater than 4 is the sum of two odd primes, adding 3 to each even number greater than 4 will produce the odd numbers greater than 7 (and 7 itself is equal to 2+2+3).
They are called the strong law of large numbers and the weak law of large numbers.

Renewal theory is the branch of probability theory that generalizes the Poisson process for arbitrary holding times. Instead of exponentially distributed holding times, a renewal process may have any independent and identically distributed (IID) holding times that have finite mean. A renewal-reward process additionally has a random sequence of ...
