Better mathematicians than me will have to weigh in (it's a low bar), but I came across this recent paper establishing a “Periodic Table” of #PrimeNumbers from 48 integer “roots" that can then be used to predict new primes: https://dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.4742238
Prime Numbers: The Most Mysterious Figures in Math
A fascinating journey into the mind-bending world of prime numbers.
Mathematicians have been asking questions about prime numbers for more than twenty-five centuries, and every answer seems to generate a new rash of questions.
1 + 7 = 8, although an even number, it symbolises infinity and eternity, and us #ActuallyAutistics
13 is also special.
A Prime
An Odd
A Fibonacci number
And depending on whom you ask:
The 8th Fibonacci number
The 7th Fibonacci number
Ironically:
The anniversary of my first romantic relationship was on: 1997-07-17. It was my first love who picked that, and she had no idea what my favourite numbers are.
My height is 175 cm or 5'7.5" to 5'8.5" (depending on whom you ask).
Favourite time of the day: 07:00 and 19:00 (7pm). 19 is the 8th Prime. (There's 8 again.)
The largest known prime number, known as M82589933, is 24,862,048 digits long and can be calculated by multiplying together 82,589,933 twos and then subtracting one.
There is this really awesome series on YouTube about the Riemann-Zeta function which is currently running and seems to want to explain all the mathematic objects related to it properly it would be awesome if you could show the video series some love while it's running. https://youtu.be/4bzSFNCiKrk #mathematics#mathstodon#primenumbers#riemann#zetafunction
