Kynea number

This indicates that a Kynea number is the nth power of 4 plus the (n + 1)th Mersenne number. Kynea numbers were studied by Cletus Emmanuel who named them after a baby girl.[1]

A Kynea number is an integer of the form

4^{n}+2^{n+1}-1

.

An equivalent formula is

(2^{n}+1)^{2}-2

.

The sequence of Kynea numbers starts with:

7, 23, 79, 287, 1087, 4223, 16639, 66047, 263167, 1050623, 4198399, 16785407, ... (sequence A093069 in the OEIS).

Properties

The binary representation of the nth Kynea number is a single leading one, followed by n - 1 consecutive zeroes, followed by n + 1 consecutive ones, or to put it algebraically:

4^{n}+\sum _{i=0}^{n}2^{i}.

So, for example, 23 is 10111 in binary, 79 is 1001111, etc. The difference between the nth Kynea number and the nth Carol number is the (n + 2)th power of two.

Prime Kynea numbers

Starting with 7, every third Kynea number is a multiple of 7. Thus, for a Kynea number to be a prime number, its index n cannot be of the form 3x + 1 for x > 0. The first few Kynea numbers that are also prime are 7, 23, 79, 1087, 66047, 263167, 16785407 (sequence A091514 in the OEIS).

Their n values are: 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 9, 12, 15, 17, 18, 21, 23, 27, 32, 51, 65, 87, 180, 242, 467, ... (sequence A091513 in the OEIS).

As of July 2019, the largest known prime Kynea number has index n = 852770, which has 513419 digits.[2][3] It was found by Ryan Propper in July 2019 using the programs CKSieve and PrimeFormGW. It is the 51st Kynea prime.

gollark: The old bot source is up. Someone could run a new subreddit with the old bot or something.

gollark: It seems a very weird system.

gollark: And generally for you to profit someone has to lose. Which is not quite the case in reality - stocks pay dividends.

gollark: Also, I would hope the "ways to deal with alts/bots" involve actually making the system work and not arbitrarily limiting those somehow.

gollark: <@558846968999313418> It's not like the real world stock market. It's like they thought "this stock market thing is cool, let's do this" and copied some of the features without understanding the core idea.
