Lucky Number of Euler
A number 
such that the Prime-Generating Polynomial
is Prime for
, 1, ..., 
. Such numbers are related to the Complex QuadraticField in which the Ring of Integers is factorable. Specifically, the Lucky numbers of Euler(excluding the trivial case 
) are those numbers such that the Quadratic Field 
hasClass Number 1 (Rabinowitz 1913, Le Lionnais 1983, Conway and Guy 1996). As established by Stark (1967), there are only nine numbers 
such that 
(the Heegner Numbers 
, 
, 
, 
, 
, 
, 
, and 
), and of these, only 7, 11, 19, 43, 67, and 163 are of therequired form. Therefore, the only Lucky numbers of Euler are 2, 3, 5, 11, 17, and 41 (Le Lionnais 1983, Sloane's A014556), andthere does not exist a better Euler's 
form.
