... 14. In the book the author proved a couple of cute little lemmas before proving the Product Property Theorem. Since we did the theorem without the little lemmas we can dismiss these with scorn and derision, beating them into submission with our sledgehammer of a theorem! Lemma 2.11: If an → a then ...

... case 3 Suppose n is not a square mod p. We need two facts. 1. (p − 1)! ≡ −1 mod p (which holds generally) 2. (p − 1)! ≡ n(p−1)/2 . (which holds when n is not a square) First, Z/p is Q a field. We write out (p − 1)! and pairing inverses and get (p − 1)! ≡ c∈F× c = −1, Since the only elements left ove ...

... and 94 to concern ourselves with. We can get rid of 54, 74 and 94 by simply subtracting 24 from each of them. 46 is the largest even value we can’t remove from this list. Thus it’s proven that all even n > 46 can be expressed as the sum of a pair of abundant numbers. We wish to generalize this to od ...
