Hi phrontister

Thanks for finding the solutions. I am setting up a website for finding my prime numbers. Maybe in the future I could offer some prize money for the larger prime (>100,000 digits)

Hi bobbym

Equation in this thread..so far phrontister got 715 digit prime and how about 100,000 digits prime? How long would it take? And would it fry the CPU?

Hi bobbym

Amongst of those famous mathematicians there were amateurs like Pierre Fermat (a lawyer), Mersenne (a priest), etc. Here list of them http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_am … ematicians
There is a mafia culture in the mathematical fields and those people tends to garbage other people ideas because they are jealous.

If there is no computer maybe it would take hundreds of years to verify this for sure. But now it takes less than a day:)

Hi phrontister

Thanks for the solutions, 2^2+-1=3,5 it is part of the solutions, in which I overlooked it, it seems the equation can generate larger primes and it is becoming more interesting.

bobbym, I am drafting a research grant for my prime equations, that is why I put on hold for the grid computing. It would be kool to have a facility that could run very big calculations at a faster rate. I have more prime equations, I am trying to get a research grant to study them and maybe trying to find the largest primes as alternative to Mersenne in the future. This is one of the prime equations that could give big Prime at a smaller prime number input, the derivation of the equation is simple.

(10002^214+10003^214)/(10002^2+10003^2)=849 Digits Prime and (10002^562+10003^562)/(10002^2+10003^2)=2241 Digits Prime.

Basically, If there is no solution for P=13, it would be mind boggling to proof it so but if there is a solution, it would be very big. I am currently working on my equations and primes numbers, there are many more equations but I need someone to help me with the coding. There is someone suggesting me to use grid computing and the problem is that, I am not a programmer and I have left programming more than 10 years ago. Maybe I could apply for a research grant to study these prime numbers and work with collaborators.

Hi bobbym

Thanks..It is really kool to know there is a solution for P=17.

Hi bobbym

What program do you use to calculate them? On the other hands, can you get any solution for P>11? I think there could be no more solution, if there is one, it would be very large.

I think there are few more solutions for P=3, have you tried P=7 and I think there would be no solution at lower amount or no solution at all.

Yes bobbym..both have to be primes.
