Generation of primes

In computational number theory, a variety of algorithms make it possible to generate prime numbers efficiently. These are used in various applications, for example hashing, public-key cryptography, and search of prime factors in large numbers. For relatively small numbers, it is possible to just apply trial division to each successive odd number. Prime sieves are almost always faster. Prime sieving is the fastest known way to deterministically enumerate the primes. There are some known formulas that can calculate the next prime but there is no known way to express the next prime in terms of the previous primes. Also, there is no effective known general manipulation and/or extension of some mathematical expression (even such including later primes) that deterministically calculates the next prime.

MegaFavNumbers: Plus One Primes, 154,641,337, and 62,784,382,823

My entry in the #MegaFavNumbers series looks at a particularly striking example of a very specific family of primes -- and how it connects to what digits can be the final digit of primes in different bases.

Prime Numbers and their Mysterious Distribution (Prime Number Theorem)

Primes are the building blocks of math. But just how mysterious are they? Our study of prime numbers dates back to the ancient Greeks who first recognized that certain numbers can't be turned into rectangles, or that they can't be factored into any way. Over the years prime numbers have

Kids of the 80s and 90s had a lot of prime years, but kids of the 2010s won't be so lucky.

Check out the main channel @polymathematic ! As a child born in the 80s, I had a lot of great prime years: 1993, 1997, 1999, 2003. But we're in the midst of the largest prime desert since the mid-20th century at present, and after a couple twin prime years in 2027 and 2029, it will only g
