Conjecture 1 (conjecture about square numbers and odd primes): Every number which is not twice a square number (A001105) can be written as (twice a nonzero square number) + (k*p), where k is 1 for odd numbers and 2 for even numbers, and p is an odd prime, there are 47 known counterexamples, the largest known counterexample is 43358, and I conjectured that all other numbers which is not twice a square number can be written as this form.

There are many numbers which is not twice a square number which can be uniquely written as (twice a nonzero square number) + (k*p), where k is 1 for odd numbers and 2 for even numbers, and p is an odd prime, but I conjectured there are only finite such numbers (there are 318 known such numbers, the largest such number is 89072), furthermore, for every number r>=0, there are only finitely many numbers which is not twice a square number which can be written as (twice a nonzero square number) + (k*p), where k is 1 for odd numbers and 2 for even numbers, no more than r ways.

"Number of ways" sequences in OEIS:

Notes:
Conjecture 1: * For a number which is twice a square number (2*n^2), can be written as (twice a nonzero square number) + (2*p), the only possible prime is when the nonzero square number is 2*(n-1)^2, because of algebraic factorization, and hence p=2*n-1, thus, if 2*n-1 is prime, then 2*n^2 can be uniquely written as this way, and if 2*n-1 is not prime, then 2*n^2 cannot be written as this way, for the fully such numbers divided by 2 (allow the prime to be 2), see A064233 (also see A014090 for both allow the prime to be 2 and allow the square number to be 0) Conjecture 2: * For a number which is twice a triangular number (n*(n+1)), can be written as (twice a nonzero triangular number) + (2*p), the only possible prime is when the nonzero triangular number is (n-1)*n or (n-2)*(n-1), because of algebraic factorization, and hence p=n or p=2*n-1, thus, if only one of n and 2*n-1 is prime, then n*(n+1) can be uniquely written as this way, and if neither n nor 2*n-1 is prime, then n*(n+1) cannot be written as this way, for the fully such numbers divided by 2 (allow the prime to be 2), see A111908 (also see A076768 for both allow the prime to be 2 and allow the triangular number to be 0) Related OEIS sequences: Conjecture 1: 2*n-1 is prime: A006254 2*n-1 is not prime: A104275 2*n-1 is composite: A053726 Conjecture 2: n and 2*n-1 are both primes: A005382 n is prime but 2*n-1 is not prime: A307390 n is not prime but 2*n-1 is prime: A174166 n and 2*n-1 are both not primes: A138666 Last fiddled with by sweety439 on 2021-11-18 at 05:29 |

The counterexamples listed as sequences:
(A) Odd counterexamples (AA) Odd prime counterexamples (AB) Odd composite counterexamples (AC) Odd unit (only for "1") counterexamples [note: Odd counterexamples cannot allow the even prime 2, since (twice a square/triangular number) + (the even prime (2)) will be even number, not odd number] (B) Even counterexamples (BA) Even "twice prime" counterexamples (BAA) Even "twice prime" counterexamples which are still counterexamples even if allowing the even prime 2 (BAB) Even "twice prime" counterexamples which if allowing the even prime 2, then will not be counterexamples (BB) Even "twice composite" counterexamples (BBA) Even "twice composite" counterexamples which are still counterexamples even if allowing the even prime 2 (BBB) Even "twice composite" counterexamples which if allowing the even prime 2, then will not be counterexamples [note: no even "twice unit (only for "2")" counterexamples, since the number "2" is both "twice square number" and "twice triangular number", thus not in my conjectures] (C) Even "not counterexamples" since they are "twice square numbers" or "twice triangular numbers", there are infinitely many such numbers (CA) Even "not counterexamples" which are still counterexamples even if allowing the even prime 2 (CB) Even "not counterexamples" which if allowing the even prime 2, then will not be counterexamples Conjecture 1 (positive square number) + (odd prime (or) twice odd prime): (A) {1, 3, 17, 137, 227, 977, 1187, 1493, 5777, 5993} (A060003) (AA) {3, 17, 137, 227, 977, 1187, 1493} (A042978 \ {2}) (AB) {5777, 5993} (AA+AB) {3, 17, 137, 227, 977, 1187, 1493, 5777, 5993} (AC) {1} (B+C) (2*A064233 U {6}) (BAA+BBA+CA) (2*A064233) (B) {4, 6, 10, 20, 26, 62, 68, 74, 116, 122, 170, 182, 254, 260, 428, 452, 740, 758, 878, 1052, 1142, 1412, 1460, 1542, 1658, 1982, 2510, 2702, 2828, 3098, 3812, 5972, 6638, 7352, 15098, 19268, 43358} (BAA+BBA) {4, 10, 20, 26, 62, 68, 74, 116, 122, 170, 182, 254, 260, 428, 452, 740, 758, 878, 1052, 1142, 1412, 1460, 1542, 1658, 1982, 2510, 2702, 2828, 3098, 3812, 5972, 6638, 7352, 15098, 19268, 43358} (BAB+BBB) {6} (BA) {4, 6, 10, 26, 62, 74, 122, 254, 758, 878, 1142, 1658, 1982, 3098, 6638, 15098} (2*A065377 U {6}) (BAA) {4, 10, 26, 62, 74, 122, 254, 758, 878, 1142, 1658, 1982, 3098, 6638, 15098} (2*A065377) (BAB) {6} (BB+C) (2*A014090 U {}) (BBA+CA) (2*A014090) (BB) {20, 68, 116, 170, 182, 260, 428, 452, 740, 1052, 1412, 1460, 1542, 2510, 2702, 2828, 3812, 5972, 7352, 19268, 43358} (2*A020495 U {}) (BBA) {20, 68, 116, 170, 182, 260, 428, 452, 740, 1052, 1412, 1460, 1542, 2510, 2702, 2828, 3812, 5972, 7352, 19268, 43358} (2*A020495) (BBB) {} (C) (twice_square(A104275) U {}) (CA) (twice_square(A104275)) (CB) {} Conjecture 2 (positive triangular number) + (odd prime (or) twice odd prime): (A) {1, 3} (AA) {3} (AB) {} (AA+AB) {3} (AC) {1} (B+C) (2*A111908 U {6, 10}) (BAA+BBA+CA) (2*A111908) (B) {4, 10, 14, 122, 422, 432} (2*A255904 U {10}) (BAA+BBA) {4, 14, 122, 422, 432} (2*A255904) (BAB+BBB) {10} (BA) {4, 10, 14, 122, 422} (2*A065397 U {10}) (BAA) {4, 14, 122, 422} (2*A065397) (BAB) {10} (BB+C) (2*A076768 U {6}) (BBA+CA) (2*A076768) (BB) {432} (BBA) {432} (BBB) {} (C) (twice_triangular(A138666) U {6}) (CA) (twice_triangular(A138666)) (CB) {6} Last fiddled with by sweety439 on 2021-11-18 at 06:23 |
