This permits the formulation of an extended twin prime conjecture. Moreover, it is found that the prime numbers subsets contained in Mersenne intervals have cardinalities strongly correlated with the corresponding Mersenne numbers.展开更多

In this work, unified modular multipliers over generalized Mersenne numbers are proposed for RNS Montgomery modular multiplication, which enables efficient elliptic curve point multiplication (ECPM). Meanwhile, the elliptic curve arithmetic with ECPM is performed by mixed coordinates and adjusted for hardware implementation. In addition, the conversion between RNS and the binary number system is also discussed. Compared with the results in the literature, our hardware architecture for ECPM demonstrates high performance. A 256-bit ECPM in Xilinx XC2VP100 field programmable gate array device (FPGA) can be performed in 1.44 ms, costing 22147 slices, 45 dedicated multipliers, and 8.25K bits of random access memories (RAMs).展开更多

For those whose difference is equal to 6, we showed their origin then we classified them into two categories according to their classes, we showed in which context two prime numbers which differ from 6 are called sexy and in what context they are said real sexy prime. For those whose difference is equal to 4, we showed their origin then we showed that two prime numbers which differ from 4, that is to say two cousin prime numbers, are successive. We made an observation on the supposed prime numbers then we established two pairs of equations from this observation and deduced the origin of the Mersenne number and that of the Fermat number.展开更多
