Repeatedly Appending Any Digit to Generate Composite Numbers [PDF]
Amer. Math. Monthly 121 (2014), no. 5, 416-421, 2019 We investigate the problem of finding integers $k$ such that appending any number of copies of the base-ten digit $d$ to $k$ yields a composite number. In particular, we prove that there exist infinitely many integers coprime to all digits such that repeatedly appending {\it any} digit yields a composite number.
