PERFECT NUMBERS WITH IDENTICAL DIGITS Paul Pollack1
... 3. Proofs of Theorems 1 and 2 Proof of Theorem 1 Throughout this section we assume that g ≥ 2 is fixed. We begin by treating the case of even perfect numbers. Lemma 7. There are only finitely many repdigit numbers in base g which are even and perfect. In fact, all such numbers are strictly less than ...

Prime Factorization
... A whole number that has exactly two unique factors, 1 and the number itself, is a prime number. A number greater than 1 with more than two factors is a composite number. Every composite number can be expressed as a product of prime numbers. This is called a prime factorization of the number. A ...

On the least common multiple of q
... An equivalent form of the prime number theorem states that log lcm(1, 2, . . . , n) ∼ n as n → ∞ (see, for example, [4]). Nair [7] gave a nice proof for the well-known estimate lcm{1, 2, . . . , n} ≥ 2n−1 , while Hanson [3] already obtained lcm{1, 2, . . . , n} ≤ 3n . Recently, Farhi [1] established ...

Congruent Numbers and Heegner Points
... Both Monsky and Tian have proven their theorem based on the original method of Heegner. Heegner published his paper in 1952 as a 59 years old nonprofessional mathematician. In the same paper, Heegner solved Gauss’ class number one problem whose correctness was accepted by the math community only in ...
