I've found that sextics run 20-30% faster with sieving on the algebraic side. But it needs lss:0 in the .poly file which isn't mentioned in any of the doc.

Also reserving (all likely to be faster than the sextics above):

Hi,

Noob/Crank trying to get his feet wet so I hope I did this right.

Parsed all of the text files (380-1000) at [url]http://www.lri.fr/~ochem/opn/[/url] into an XML document and sorted by composite length.

I then picked the smallest c (c86 for sigma(129235603507054755950116424209091471032749312619279355966082026262889177 ^2).

I did not check the reservations for the above, I wanted to make sure a) I was doing this right and b) write another parser to check these on the fly. I also did not reserve it because I wanted to do a test run.

My choice was <90 digits so I ran YAFU siqs



sigma(129235603507054755950116424209091471032749312619279355966082026262889177 ^2) =

Is this correct?


[B]Also Chris, I apologize for stepping on your feet, but I accidentally put sigma(69710210289691^12) in my example.n file before running MSIEVE.
[/B]
sigma(69710210289691^12) =
r1=1872396286329077709020577353455140425396501 (pp43)
r2=983399467891093542674313675313141985837450528432439539 (pp54)

In any case am I on the right path here?

Not every C97 needs to be factored
 

This is starting to be a thread filled with rather opaque postings of medium-sized prime numbers. I have devoted enough quadrillions of compute cycles to aliquot sequences that I probably shouldn't complain (and 60 quadrillion cycles to do 191^103-1), but I get the impression that the factorisations are in fact useless to the goal of proving how big an odd perfect number has to be - they won't let you sneak round the roadblocks, they serve only to make shorter the output of a program whose output is already only tens of megabytes long.

There must be a statement of the form 'either an OPN is greater than 10^481 or the factors of 191^103-1 have /some property/', but I'm not at all sure what the alternate hypothesis is ... I worry that we're doing SNFS jobs merely to confirm that numbers have no very small factors.

Would it be more useful to organise people to split 2801^79-1, which is a reasonably large but eminently practical SNFS job for which I'd be happy to do the matrix step, rather than to fiddle with these tiny little numbers?

alexhiggins732, you are on the right path. But see fivemack's comments. You might want to look at [url]http://oddperfect.org/composites.html[/url] for some other targets.

fivemack, I agree splitting 2801^79-1 would be more help, but it's out of my range. Pascal, how much help does splitting the small fry actually do?

Reserving a few more (I'll carry on until Pascal replies):

[QUOTE=chris2be8;211048] Pascal, how much help does splitting the small fry actually do?[/QUOTE]

Here is my understanding - I'm sure Pascal will correct any errors.

[b]1.[/b] The 31 remaining roadblocks (see[URL="http://www.mersenneforum.org/showthread.php?p=202991"] post 130[/URL]) must be handled in some manner to complete a proof there is no odd perfect number less than 10[sup]1000[/sup]. Finding a factor is the best way to clear a roadblock, but there are other methods that will tried when he reaches the limit of factoring.

[B]2.[/B] None of the other factorizations are necessary to prove there is no odd perfect number less than 10[sup]1000[/sup].

However, the other factors aid the aesthetics of this proof and the efficiency of future extensions:

[B]3.[/B] Composites in a proof are ugly because they make the proof longer.

[B]4.[/B] Composites in a proof are ugly because they deviate from an "ideal" proof that will be created when all the factorizations are known.

[B]5.[/B] Composites in a proof are inefficient for future extensions because they cause factorization work that may become unneeded when the other factorizations allow closer adherence to the ideal proof.

In summary, the way I understand it is that only the roadblock factorizations are necessary, but all the other factorizations will be used when available. When there is sufficient interest and resources to factor a roadblock, especially the lowest roadblock, that is more helpful. When that interest and resources are not available, factoring the other numbers gives tasks of varying sizes whose results will be used for a known purpose.

It sounds like now may the time to factor 2801[sup]79[/sup]-1.

I am currently fiddling with some standalone support scripts for factsieve.py so I can automate having multiple clients run in different locations and synchronizing only the spairs.add.x files to the master. I have found that running multiple clients over a VPN takes to much of a performance hit because all of the network i/o overhead.

Should have the final kinks worked out by tonight and will start cracking away at the c115+ on that list.
