Thanks a lot, now is much better :smile:

n=70 to 3E15, was 1970 sec, now 1300 sec (estimate)
n=70 3E15-1E16, was 23000sec (est), now 2900 sec! (est)
n=71 to 1E15, was 5500sec, now 5000 sec (est)

Also confirmed a number of already found DodecaProths.
I'm now trying to find more DodecaProths for n=62 which was most prolific so far.

ps. To moderators: Please remove my duplicate post #276.

There are 6 dodecaproths for n=53
 

I've searched the full range for n=53
Here is the full report. On my P4 Celeron 1.7 GHz:

First DodecaProth n=56
 

[B]4356015966090075 56 [/B] [5E15]

I'm now working on n=58 and n=71.

BTW, it will be good to creata a separate thread for DodecaProths and move related posts there. Tell Citrix in his thread about it, and tell him that his thread will be soon deleted because at the time he wrote it we already discussed DodecaProths here but he never bother to have a look.

OK, will do, will also create a separate reservation/results thread and grab the info from here.

OK: Reservations thread: [url]http://www.mersenneforum.org/showthread.php?t=5359[/url]

Please post only reservations or results in that thread.

Use this thread for discussions.

Thanks for the help Kosmaj.

Estimation of the number of dodecaproths for n
 

As I estimated the number of octoproths for a given n value, it is also possible to give an estimation for dodecaproths:
Let's define the "weight" for n:
[CODE]
w(n)=T=2048.0;forprime(p=3,10^4,l=listcreate(12);g=Mod(2,p)^n;h=1/g;a=[g,-g,h,-h,2*g,-2*g,h/2,-h/2,4*g,-4*g,h/4,-h/4];\
a=lift(a);for(i=1,12,listput(l,a[i],i));l=listsort(l,1);T*=(1-length(l)/p)/(1-1/p)^12);return(T)[/CODE]

then by this we can estimate the number of dodecaproths for a given n by:
[CODE]
f(n)=round(w(n)*2^n/(n*log(2))^12*1/64)[/CODE]

For example if n=53 then f(n)=4. The true number is 6.

Can someone else check this one. The list above stated None for n=50.

But the PARI script (isddp.txt) run against all known Octoproth's gave this:-

717083008036395 50 is DodecaProth! ... Left_legs=1, Rigth_legs=0.

Either there is a problem with dodeca_2_0.c or that PARI script:-

$ ../dodeca20 50 7170000000000000 7200000000000000
You can also find the k n values in results_dodeca.txt file ( These are 3-probable primes )

That is a new dodecaproth! I think somebody made a mistake when he searched this n value ( for this he used your tables!).
For my program: you have typed 10 times larger number than original!!!
Try again. For me it is correctly found this number!

Yup, just noticed that:-

$ ../dodeca20 50 717000000000000 720000000000000
You can also find the k n values in results_dodeca.txt file ( These are 3-probable primes )

This proves that double checking is useful (and necessary!).

Also got:-

Yes, that's in the range 10000T (1E16) to 100000T (1E17).

[B]Sorry Kosmaj, this was in your reserved range, I was supposed to be testing n=55. Should teach me to check things more closely.[/B]

49 and 50
 

By the way, my first effort looked at the first 65000 octoproths, due to limiations of file handling in MS Excel, and therefore 49 was incomplete. It needs to be run with Robert's program.

I took my octo_complete.txt file and ran it through (a slightly modified) "isddp.txt" in PARI. That's how I found the missing n=50 one.

I've done this for all n in that file (up to and including n=54) and everything else is correct. (Will double double check that though ;-) ).
