ultimate generalisation of Euler-Fermat theorem
Let where are positive integers. Then
by the result in “Euler’s generalisation of Fermat’s theorem – a further generalisation”. Proceedings of Hawaii Intl. conference on maths & statistics 2004 (ISSN 1550–3747). Here, is a positive integer. Next,
(This is a corollary of “Euler’s generalisation of Fermat’s theorem – a further generalisation”.)We can proceed in a like manner till we reach
At this stage onwards the function generates only multiples![]()
of and no prime number
![]()
is generated. This is the ultimate generalisation of Fermat’s theorem. Please note that each step of multiple exponentiation
in the above is a corollary of the theorem referred to.
