The triple bar character in Unicode is code point U+2261 ≡ IDENTICAL TO (≡, ≡). [1] The closely related code point U+2262 ≢ NOT IDENTICAL TO (≢, ≢) is the same symbol with a slash through it, indicating the negation of its mathematical meaning.
Gilbreath's conjecture. Gilbreath's conjecture is a conjecture in number theory regarding the sequences generated by applying the forward difference operator to consecutive prime numbers and leaving the results unsigned, and then repeating this process on consecutive terms in the resulting sequence, and so forth.
A Fortunate number, named after Reo Fortune, is the smallest integer m > 1 such that, for a given positive integer n, pn # + m is a prime number, where the primorial pn # is the product of the first n prime numbers. For example, to find the seventh Fortunate number, one would first calculate the product of the first seven primes (2, 3, 5, 7, 11 ...

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, and were composite for all other positive integers n ≤ 257. The first seven entries of his list ( for n = 2, 3, 5, 7 ...
The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS) is an online database of integer sequences. It was created and maintained by Neil Sloane while researching at AT&T Labs. He transferred the intellectual property and hosting of the OEIS to the OEIS Foundation in 2009. [4] Sloane is the chairman of the OEIS Foundation.
Palindromic number. A palindromic number (also known as a numeral palindrome or a numeric palindrome) is a number (such as 16461) that remains the same when its digits are reversed. In other words, it has reflectional symmetry across a vertical axis. The term palindromic is derived from palindrome, which refers to a word (such as rotor or ...
Palindromic primes: prime numbers whose decimal expansion is a palindrome. In mathematics, a palindromic prime (sometimes called a palprime[1]) is a prime number that is also a palindromic number. Palindromicity depends on the base of the number system and its notational conventions, while primality is independent of such concerns.
