For the Sierp odd-n conjecture, here's an update of both lists with the primes that I found and the Sierp base 4 primes with even k's removed from my list. There was only 1 Sierp base 4 prime not on my list. I ended up testing up to n=118K on all k's before stopping.

I was a little confused as to why you have three k's on your list that have a prime at n=1.

This balancing should make things much easier.

Your list with my primes and test limits:

My list with Sierp base 4 primes and test limits and removal of even k's:

91437             118K
93477   63251
93663   82317

The bottom line as now shown on both lists is that we have 13 k's remaining, 11 of which have been tested to n=118K and the other 2 of which have been tested very high with Sierp base 4. This balances with the 14 odd k's that I said I had remaining previously minus the one removed from Sierp base 4.

Good work, Gary!

I agree for the three k's that must be eliminated because they yield a prime for n = 1 which is, indeed, an odd exponent!!

Here are the gathered results for +1, n even :

1) Remaining :

Code:

  k       tested up to (n base 2)

23451        1950964
60849        1907154

Indeed, all are from Sierpinski base 4 project.

If no one objects, I'd like to reserve 16734*4^n-1. That's base=4, k=16734, Riesel numbers(-1). I believe the n-values that need to be tested start at n=100K.

If there's a sieved file, I'd love to know about it. Also, if people would rather I sieve than LLR, I can do that to. I just ask that the digit length of the lowest untested value in the sieve file be no more than twice the digit length of any un-LLred value in a lower base. In that instance, I'd probably want to sieve a lower base.

gd_barnes · 2008-01-16, 17:44

Karsten,

Attached is a notepad document that is an update of the web page that you sent me via PM that has many primes filled in and some corrections for the +1 odd-n conjecture. 6 of the k's had primes at n=1; 3 of which already had a higher prime and 3 of which had no prime found.

This balances with the 13 k's remaining at n=118K shown earlier in this thread.

You got it. I haven't done any sieving on base 4 past my original testing limit of n=100K. Jean or Karsten, do you have a sieve file for Riesel base 4 k=16734?

Jasong, I'm not sure I quite follow you here about 2X length of LLR'd value of lower base. I can only speculate that you might like to save sieving/LLRing time if Riesel k=16734/2=8367 base 2 has known testing above n=200K (n=100K base 4) to avoid double-testing.

When setting up the pages, I checked all k's on bases that are powers of 2 for primes in the prime archives at the top-5000 site and at www.rieselprime.org (converted from base 2) before putting anything up for testing. As shown on the latter site, k=8367 has only been tested to n=10K base 2 (n=5K base 4) and has no primes that are odd-n so you're OK there.

I think this is a very good idea to reserve this base 4 vs. base 16. It is open for both bases. It would be a waste of time for someone to sieve/test k=16734 base 16 and then turn around and do it for base 4. Perhaps that's part of what you're referring to.

In this case, I'll show you as reserving k=16734 on both base 4 and base 16. Otherwise someone could duplicate you base 16.

One caviot...If you find an even-n prime base 4 (n==0mod4 base 2), that will also eliminate the k on base 16 and you could stop testing. But if you find an odd-n prime base 4 (n==2mod4 base 2), I would suggest deleting all odd-n's in your sieve file and continue from there looking for an even-n base 16 prime.

Of course it's your choice to continue on for base 16 but it's a way to kill two birds with one stone.

You could even end up with two different top-5000 primes; one for each base!

I am also proposing that this thread be moved to the "Conjectures 'R Us" project thread.

As discussed with Jean, we will be adding the Riesel and Seirp base 2 even-n and odd-n conjectures as a subproject to our project.

As with the other threads, I'll wait a couple of days before requesting that this be moved.

Gary

Jean Penné · 2008-01-19, 14:44

To illustraste the dissymetry between +1, base 2 odd / even exponents, I tested k = 18534/2 = 9267 with even exponents.
In less than 48H, I found that :

9267*2^n+1 is prime for

n = 100, 1556, 1966, 2660, 4342, 4468, 5372, 39538, 65386, 142426

although for odd exponents, I am presently reaching n = 1983943 with no prime!

I will continue even n during some days, just for fun...

Jean,

Very good! Nice work.

I resumed testing the Sierp odd-n conjecture on 2 cores yesterday starting from n=118K. I'm now up to n=175K. I found primes on 4 more k's, all of which came in one small grouping from n=156K-170K, as follows:

50433*2^156597+1
91437*2^161615+1
61137*2^162967+1
39297*2^169495+1

This leaves 9 k's remaining!

Testing will pause at n=200K while I sieve a new file for the remaining k's.

I will request that this thread be moved over to the conjectures project shortly.

It will probably be Monday/Tuesday before I can get the project/my site updated to include the info. for this. For the time being, Karsten is keeping good track of things.

Many congrats for this work, Gary, it's very encouraging!

i included all data from above in the online-page (you know where).
have a look and than i can make it available for all.

gd_barnes May 2007 Kansas; USA 2²×5²×107 Posts	For the Sierp odd-n conjecture, here's an update of both lists with the primes that I found and the Sierp base 4 primes with even k's removed from my list. There was only 1 Sierp base 4 prime not on my list. I ended up testing up to n=118K on all k's before stopping. I was a little confused as to why you have three k's on your list that have a prime at n=1. This balancing should make things much easier. Your list with my primes and test limits: Code: tested to k 2k (n-1 base 2) prime 9267 18534 1967862 32247 64494 1770506 37953 75906 118K 38463 76926 58753 39297 78594 118K 50433 100866 118K 53133 106266 118K 56643 113286 1 (??) 566432^1+1 is prime! 60357 120714 118K 60963 121926 73409 61137 122274 118K 62307 124614 44559 70467 140934 118K 75183 150366 35481 78153 156306 1 (??) 781532^1+1 is prime! 78483 156966 1 (??) 784832^1+1 is prime! 78753 157506 63761 80463 160926 118K 84363 168726 118K 85287 170574 118K 91437 182874 118K 93477 186954 63251 93663 187326 82317 My list with Sierp base 4 primes and test limits and removal of even k's: Code: k prime test limit comments 2943 108041 9267 1.97M Sierp base 4 17937 53927 24693 357417 Sierp base 4 26613 89749 32247 1.77M Sierp base 4 35787 36639 37953 118K 38463 58753 39297 118K 46623 79553 50433 118K 53133 118K 60357 118K 60963 73409 61137 118K 62307 44559 70467 118K 75183 35481 78753 63761 80463 118K 84363 118K 85287 118K 91437 118K 93477 63251 93663 82317 The bottom line as now shown on both lists is that we have 13 k's remaining, 11 of which have been tested to n=118K and the other 2 of which have been tested very high with Sierp base 4. This balances with the 14 odd k's that I said I had remaining previously minus the one removed from Sierp base 4. Gary Last fiddled with by gd_barnes on 2008-01-15 at 21:50*

jasong "Jason Goatcher" Mar 2005 3×7×167 Posts	If no one objects, I'd like to reserve 167344^n-1. That's base=4, k=16734, Riesel numbers(-1). I believe the n-values that need to be tested start at n=100K. If there's a sieved file, I'd love to know about it. Also, if people would rather I sieve than LLR, I can do that to. I just ask that the digit length of the lowest untested value in the sieve file be no more than twice the digit length of any un-LLred value in a lower base. In that instance, I'd probably want to sieve a lower base. Last fiddled with by jasong on 2008-01-16 at 11:24*

Jean Penné May 2004 FRANCE 1114₈ Posts	Just for fun and curiosity... To illustraste the dissymetry between +1, base 2 odd / even exponents, I tested k = 18534/2 = 9267 with even exponents. In less than 48H, I found that : 9267*2^n+1 is prime for n = 100, 1556, 1966, 2660, 4342, 4468, 5372, 39538, 65386, 142426 although for odd exponents, I am presently reaching n = 1983943 with no prime! I will continue even n during some days, just for fun... Jean

gd_barnes May 2007 Kansas; USA 10100111001100₂ Posts	I am also proposing that this thread be moved to the "Conjectures 'R Us" project thread. As discussed with Jean, we will be adding the Riesel and Seirp base 2 even-n and odd-n conjectures as a subproject to our project. As with the other threads, I'll wait a couple of days before requesting that this be moved. Gary
