Perfect numbers are natural numbers that equal the sum of their positive proper divisors, which are divisors excluding the number itself. So, 6 is a perfect number because the proper divisors of 6 are 1, 2, and 3, and 1 + 2 + 3 = 6. [2] [4] Euclid proved c. 300 BCE that every prime expressed as M p = 2 p − 1 has a corresponding perfect number ...
The number of perfect numbers less than n is less than , where c > 0 is a constant. [53] In fact it is (), using little-o notation. [54] Every even perfect number ends in 6 or 28, base ten; and, with the only exception of 6, ends in 1 in base 9.
A unitary multi 2-perfect number is naturally called a unitary perfect number. In the case k > 2, no example of a unitary multi k-perfect number is yet known. It is known that if such a number exists, it must be even and greater than 10 102 and must have more than forty four odd prime factors. This problem is probably very difficult to settle.
Every perfect number is also -perfect. [1] However, there are numbers such as 24 which are -perfect but not perfect. The only known -perfect number with three distinct prime factors is 126 = 2 · 3 2 · 7. [2] Every number of form 2^(n - 1) * (2^n - 1) * (2^n)^m where m >= 0, where 2^n - 1 is Prime, are Granville Numbers.
a perfect number equals the sum of its proper divisors; that is, s(n) = n; an abundant number is lesser than the sum of its proper divisors; that is, s(n) > n; a highly abundant number has a sum of positive divisors that is greater than any lesser number; that is, σ(n) > σ(m) for every positive integer m < n.
A number that has the same number of digits as the number of digits in its prime factorization, including exponents but excluding exponents equal to 1. A046758: Extravagant numbers: 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 33, 34, 36, 38, ... A number that has fewer digits than the number of digits in its prime factorization (including ...
A perfect number is a natural number that equals the sum of its proper divisors, the numbers that are less than it and divide it evenly (with remainder zero). For instance, the proper divisors of 6 are 1, 2, and 3, which sum to 6, so 6 is perfect. A Mersenne prime is a prime number of the form M p = 2 p − 1, one less than a power of two.
The original, called Mersenne's conjecture, was a statement by Marin Mersenne in his Cogitata Physico-Mathematica (1644; see e.g. Dickson 1919) that the numbers were prime for n = 2, 3, 5, 7, 13, 17, 19, 31, 67, 127 and 257 (sequence A109461 in the OEIS), and were composite for all other positive integers n ≤ 257.
