Researchers demonstrate that there are infinitely many prime numbers of the form p²+4q² using novel and advanced combinatorial methods.

In 'Prime Target,' Leo Woodall plays a mathlete attempting to crack the code in prime numbers, and attempts to escape an unknown threat.

A new proof has brought mathematicians one step closer to understanding the hidden order of those “atoms of arithmetic,” the prime numbers. The primes — numbers that are only divisible by themselves ...

How to print from the Linux command line What you'll need: A running instance of Linux (it doesn't matter what distribution you use) and a connected and configured printer.

For the first time in more than 25 years, mathematicians have proven a new way to identify prime numbers, and in doing so developed a toolkit that could allow further advances in number theory.

A Proof from Antiquity Mathematics has an unlimited number of prime number building blocks. Euclid proved this more than 2,000 years ago with a simple thought experiment. Suppose there were only a ...

Prime numbers are one of the most fascinating mysteries of mathematics, and the more we look at them, the weirder they get.
