An odd number does not have the prime factor 2. The first: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23 (sequence A005408 in the OEIS). All integers are either even or odd. A square has even multiplicity for all prime factors (it is of the form a 2 for some a). The first: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121, 144 (sequence A000290 in the OEIS).
d() is the number of positive divisors of n, including 1 and n itself; σ() is the sum of the positive divisors of n, including 1 and n itselfs() is the sum of the proper divisors of n, including 1 but not n itself; that is, s(n) = σ(n) − n
The sum of its factors (including one and itself) sum to 360, exactly three times 120. Perfect numbers are order two ( 2-perfect ) by the same definition. 120 is the sum of a twin prime pair (59 + 61) and the sum of four consecutive prime numbers (23 + 29 + 31 + 37), four consecutive powers of two (8 + 16 + 32 + 64), and four consecutive powers ...
= (+) (), and + and are even, and one of + and is divisible by 4. For n greater than 1, both + and are greater than 4, so removing the factor of 8 (which is equivalent to removing the factor 4 from + or , and removing the factor 2 from the other number) still leaves two factors greater than 1. Therefore, the number cannot be prime.
Every positive integer greater than 1 is either the product of two or more integer factors greater than 1, in which case it is a composite number, or it is not, in which case it is a prime number. For example, 15 is a composite number because 15 = 3 · 5 , but 7 is a prime number because it cannot be decomposed in this way.
For example, 6 is highly composite because d(6)=4 and d(n)=1,2,2,3,2 for n=1,2,3,4,5 respectively. A related concept is that of a largely composite number , a positive integer that has at least as many divisors as all smaller positive integers.
It can be proven that: . For a given prime number p, if n is p-perfect and p does not divide n, then pn is (p + 1)-perfect.This implies that an integer n is a 3-perfect number divisible by 2 but not by 4, if and only if n/2 is an odd perfect number, of which none are known.
However, the number of Pythagorean primes up to is frequently somewhat smaller than the number of non-Pythagorean primes; this phenomenon is known as Chebyshev's bias. [1] For example, the only values of n {\displaystyle n} up to 600000 for which there are more Pythagorean than non-Pythagorean odd primes less than or equal to n are 26861 and 26862.
