Proving $10240…02401$ composite












22












$begingroup$


I got this question recently, and have been unable to solve it.




Prove that $1024underbrace{00 ldotsldots 00}_{2014 text{ times}}2401$ is composite.




I have two different ways in mind.



First is $7^4+400(2^2cdot10^{504})^4$, which looks like Sophie Germain, but I'm not sure what to do with the $400$. Another thought is that this is almost a palindrome, with the order of just two digits interchanged. I'm not sure where to go from there, and if it'd provide any results, but it seems interesting nonetheless.



Please help.

    $begingroup$
    @Servaes Write $n-1 = 2^kcdot m$ with $m$ odd, and then $$a^{n-1} - 1 = (a^m - 1)prod_{kappa = 0}^{k-1}bigl(a^{2^{kappa} m} + 1bigr)$$ where $1 < a < n-1$. Then $n$ is a strong Fermat probable prime if $n$ divides one of the factors of the product, i.e. $a^m equiv 1 pmod{n}$ or there is a $kappa in {0,dotsc, k-1}$ such that $a^{2^{kappa}m} equiv -1pmod{n}$. That's the test Miller-Rabin is composed of. In this case, $a = 2$ shows it's composite. (Actually already the ordinary Fermat test shows that here.)

The method introduced in this modification is for reduction of volume of calculations.



Let's start with a simple example; consider number $N=1024002401=1670477times 613$. We may write:



$N=2^{10}.10^6+24.10^2 +1=2^3.10^2(2^7.10^4+3)+1$



$2^7.10^4+3=1280003 ≡59 mod (613)$



$N=2^3.10^2(613 k + 59)+1=800times 613times k +800 times 59 +1$



Let $800times 613 =a$ and $800times 59 +1 =b$



$(a, b)=613$



Now suppose we do not know that $p=613$ and $r=59$ in following relation:



$(a, b)=(800 p, 800 r+1)=p$



$a=800 r +1$ gives infinite numbers which its factors may be candidates for a factor of a number like ($N=2^{alpha}.10^{beta}+3^{gamma}$).



For example giving r numerous values we find that for $r=59$ we get $800times 59+1=47201=7times 11times 613$. Each of theses three factors can be the candidate for p to be tried to find the factor of N. For $N=2^{10}.10^{2018}+7^4$ we may write:



$N=2^{10}.10^{2018}+7^4=2^3.10^2(2^7.10^{2016}+3)+1$



$2^7.10^{2016}+3≡ r mod (p)= k.p +r$



$N=800(k.p+r)+1=800p.k+800r +1$



Now values for $r$ in $(800 r +1)$ give numbers their factors can be checked as a primes factor of N.

        $(a, b)=(800 p, 800 r+1)=p$



        $a=800 r +1$ gives infinite numbers which its factors may be candidates for a factor of a number like ($N=2^{alpha}.10^{beta}+3^{gamma}$).



        For example giving r numerous values we find that for $r=59$ we get $800times 59+1=47201=7times 11times 613$. Each of theses three factors can be the candidate for p to be tried to find the factor of N. For $N=2^{10}.10^{2018}+7^4$ we may write:



        $N=2^{10}.10^{2018}+7^4=2^3.10^2(2^7.10^{2016}+3)+1$



        $2^7.10^{2016}+3≡ r mod (p)= k.p +r$



        $N=800(k.p+r)+1=800p.k+800r +1$



        Now values for $r$ in $(800 r +1)$ give numbers their factors can be checked as a primes factor of N.
