The compression effect of 36 being the square of 6 causes a lot of patterns and representations to be shorter in base 36: 1 / 9 10 = 0.04 6 = 0.4 36 1 / 16 10 = 0.0213 6 = 0.29 36
The sequence (a k) of least numbers n such that σ(n) > kn, in which a 2 = 12 corresponds to the first abundant number, grows very quickly (sequence A134716 in the OEIS). The smallest odd integer with abundancy index exceeding 3 is 1018976683725 = 3 3 × 5 2 × 7 2 × 11 × 13 × 17 × 19 × 23 × 29. [8]
In number theory, an n-smooth (or n-friable) number is an integer whose prime factors are all less than or equal to n. [1] [2] For example, a 7-smooth number is a number in which every prime factor is at most 7. Therefore, 49 = 7 2 and 15750 = 2 × 3 2 × 5 3 × 7 are both 7-smooth, while 11 and 702 = 2 × 3 3 × 13 are not 7-smooth.
Prime numbers have exactly 2 divisors, and highly composite numbers are in bold. 7 is a divisor of 42 because =, so we can say It can also be said that 42 is divisible by 7, 42 is a multiple of 7, 7 divides 42, or 7 is a factor of 42. The non-trivial divisors of 6 are 2, −2, 3, −3.
Let Δ be a negative integer with Δ = −dn, where d is a multiplier and Δ is the negative discriminant of some quadratic form. Take the t first primes p 1 = 2, p 2 = 3, p 3 = 5, ..., p t, for some t ∈ N. Let f q be a random prime form of G Δ with ( Δ / q ) = 1. Find a generating set X of G Δ.
A negative base (or negative radix) may be used to construct a non-standard positional numeral system.Like other place-value systems, each position holds multiples of the appropriate power of the system's base; but that base is negative—that is to say, the base b is equal to −r for some natural number r (r ≥ 2).
Squares are always congruent to 0, 1, 4, 5, 9, 16 modulo 20. The values repeat with each increase of a by 10. In this example, N is 17 mod 20, so subtracting 17 mod 20 (or adding 3), produces 3, 4, 7, 8, 12, and 19 modulo 20 for these values. It is apparent that only the 4 from this list can be a square.
Now the product of the factors a − mb mod n can be obtained as a square in two ways—one for each homomorphism. Thus, one can find two numbers x and y, with x 2 − y 2 divisible by n and again with probability at least one half we get a factor of n by finding the greatest common divisor of n and x − y.
