极小质数
极小质数(英语:minimal prime)是娱乐数学中的一个名词,若一质数在数字顺序不变下,所有子序列都不是质数,该质数就是极小质数。
概要
以类似的概念来看,以下的32个合数在数字顺序不变下,所有子序列都不是合数:
- 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 20, 21, 22, 25, 27, 30, 32, 33, 35, 50, 51, 52, 55, 57, 70, 72, 75, 77, 111, 117, 171, 371, 711, 713, 731 (OEIS数列A071070)
若只考虑除以4会余1的质数,以下146个质数在数字顺序不变下,其子序列都没有除以4会余1的质数:
- 5, 13, 17, 29, 37, 41, 61, 73, 89, 97, 101, 109, 149, 181, 233, 277, 281, 349, 409, 433, 449, 677, 701, 709, 769, 821, 877, 881, 1669, 2221, 3001, 3121, 3169, 3221, 3301, 3833, 4969, 4993, 6469, 6833, 6949, 7121, 7477, 7949, 9001, 9049, 9221, 9649, 9833, 9901, 9949, ... (OEIS数列A111055)
若只考虑除以4会余3的质数,以下113个质数在数字顺序不变下,其子序列都没有除以4会余3的质数:
- 3, 7, 11, 19, 59, 251, 491, 499, 691, 991, 2099, 2699, 2999, 4051, 4451, 4651, 5051, 5651, 5851, 6299, 6451, 6551, 6899, 8291, 8699, 8951, 8999, 9551, 9851, ... (OEIS数列A111056)
十进制的例子
在十进制下,极小质数共有以下26个: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 19, 41, 61, 89, 409, 449, 499, 881, 991, 6469, 6949, 9001, 9049, 9649, 9949, 60649, 666649, 946669, 60000049, 66000049, 66600049 (A071062)
以409为例,其子序列有4,0,9,40,49,09,都不是质数,因此409为极小质数。子序列不一定要在原质数中连续的位子上。例如109不是极小质数,因为子序列中的19是质数。子序列的数字顺序需和原来相同,不能将两数字的顺序对调。例如991,虽然19是质数,但因为位置对调,不在考虑范围内,而其他子序列都不是质数,因此991是极小质数。
其他进制
极小质数也可以扩展到其他的进制。可以证明在每一个进制下,极小质数的个数都是有限个。换句话说,每一个足够大的质数都至少会有一个子序列是质数。
