Are prime numbers special? Insights from the life sciences [PDF]
Prime numbers have been attracting the interest of scientists since the first formulation of Euclid’s theorem in 300 B.C. Nowadays, physicists and mathematicians continue to formulate new theorems about prime numbers, trying to comprehensively explain ...

The occurrence of prime numbers revisited
Based on an arithmetical and autocatalytic approach, the authors propose a solution for the occurrence of prime numbers. Exact arithmetical calculations are provided for: the closest prime to any given positive integer (or any number of bigger or ...

A new explicit algorithmic method for generating the prime numbers in order
This paper presents a new method for generating all prime numbers up to a particular number m∈N,m⩾9, by using the set theory. The proposed method is explicit and works oriented in finding the prime numbers in order.

Binary expansions of prime reciprocals [PDF]
Prime numbers have been always of great interest. In this work, we explore the prime numbers from a sieve other than the Eratosthenes sieve. Given a prime number p, we consider the binary expansion of 1/p and, in particular, the size of the period of 1/p.

General Limit Formulae Involving Prime Numbers
Let pn be the n th prime number. In this note, we study strictly increasing sequences of positive integers An such that the limit limn→∞ (A1A2 · · · An)1/pn = e holds.

ALTERNATIVE PROOF OF THE INFINITUDE PRIMES AND PRIME PROPERTIES
Prime numbers is one of kind number that have many uses, one of which is cryptography. The uniqueness of prime numbers in their divisors and distributions causes prime numbers to be widely used in digital security systems. In number theory, one of famous

Prime Slaughter: Playful Prime Numbers [PDF]
Starting from the difficulty of creating playful representation of domain-specific abstract concepts, this study discusses the design of Prime Slaughter, a computer game aimed at facilitating individual sense-making of abstract mathematical concepts. Specifically the game proposes a transposition of primality and factorization into playful interactions,

A Simple Algorithm for Prime Factorization and Primality Testing
We propose a new simple and faster algorithm to factor numbers based on the nature of the prime numbers contained in such composite numbers. It is well known that every composite number has a unique representation as a product of prime numbers.
