In algebra and number theory, Wilson's theorem states that a natural number n > 1 is a prime number if and only if the product of all the positive integers less than n is one less than a multiple of n.
Clement's congruence-based theorem characterizes the twin primes pairs of the form (, +) through the following conditions: [()! +] ((+)), +P. A. Clement's original 1949 paper [2] provides a proof of this interesting elementary number theoretic criteria for twin primality based on Wilson's theorem.

In number theory, a Wilson prime is a prime number such that divides ()! +, where "!" denotes the factorial function; compare this with Wilson's theorem, which states that every prime divides ()! +. Both are named for 18th-century English mathematician John Wilson ; in 1770, Edward Waring credited the theorem to Wilson, [ 1 ] although it had ...
Alhazen solved problems involving congruences using what is now called Wilson's theorem. In his Opuscula, Alhazen considers the solution of a system of congruences, and gives two general methods of solution. His first method, the canonical method, involved Wilson's theorem, while his second method involved a version of the Chinese remainder ...
Fermat's last theorem Fermat's last theorem, one of the most famous and difficult to prove theorems in number theory, states that for any integer n > 2, the equation a n + b n = c n has no positive integer solutions. Fermat's little theorem Fermat's little theorem field extension A field extension L/K is a pair of fields K and L such that K is ...
