Aurifeuillian factor
An Aurifeuillian factor was named after the French mathematician Léon-François-Antoine Aurifeuille.
- Numbers of the form [math]\displaystyle{ 2^{4k+2}+1 }[/math] have the following Aurifeuillian factorization: Mathworld
- [math]\displaystyle{ 2^{4k+2}+1 = (2^{2k+1}-2^{k+1}+1)\cdot (2^{2k+1}+2^{k+1}+1) }[/math]
- Numbers of the form [math]\displaystyle{ b^n - 1 }[/math] or [math]\displaystyle{ \Phi_n(b) }[/math], where [math]\displaystyle{ b = s^2 \cdot t }[/math] with square-free [math]\displaystyle{ t }[/math], have aurifeuillean factorization if and only if one of the following conditions holds:
- [math]\displaystyle{ t\equiv 1 \pmod 4 }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ n\equiv t \pmod{2t} }[/math]
- [math]\displaystyle{ t\equiv 2, 3 \pmod 4 }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ n\equiv 2t \pmod{4t} }[/math]
- Thus, when [math]\displaystyle{ b = s^2\cdot t }[/math] with square-free [math]\displaystyle{ t }[/math], and [math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math] is congruent to [math]\displaystyle{ t }[/math] mod [math]\displaystyle{ 2t }[/math], then if [math]\displaystyle{ t }[/math] is congruent to 1 mod 4, [math]\displaystyle{ b^n-1 }[/math] have aurifeuillean factorization, otherwise, [math]\displaystyle{ b^n+1 }[/math] have aurifeuillean factorization.
When the number is of a particular form (the exact expression varies with the base), Aurifeuillian factorization may be used, which gives a product of two or three numbers. The following equations give Aurifeuillian factors for the Cunningham project bases as a product of F, L and M: Main Cunningham Tables. At the end of tables 2LM, 3+, 5-, 6+, 7+, 10+, 11+ and 12+ are formulae detailing the Aurifeuillian factorisations.</ref>
If we let L = C - D, M = C + D, the Aurifeuillian factorizations for bn ± 1 with the bases 2 ≥ b ≥ 24 (perfect powers excluded, since a power of bn is also a power of b) are: (for the coefficients of the polynomials for all square-free bases up to 199, see Coefficients of Lucas C,D polynomials for all square-free bases up to 199)
(Number = F * (C - D) * (C + D) = F * L * M)
b | Number | (C - D) * (C + D) = L * M | F | C | D |
