Abstract: | Let be an odd composite integer. Write with odd. If either mod or mod for some , then we say that is a strong pseudoprime to base , or spsp() for short. Define to be the smallest strong pseudoprime to all the first prime bases. If we know the exact value of , we will have, for integers , a deterministic efficient primality testing algorithm which is easy to implement. Thanks to Pomerance et al. and Jaeschke, the are known for . Conjectured values of were given by us in our previous papers (Math. Comp. 72 (2003), 2085-2097; 74 (2005), 1009-1024). The main purpose of this paper is to give exact values of for ; to give a lower bound of : ; and to give reasons and numerical evidence of K2- and -spsp's to support the following conjecture: for any , where (resp. ) is the smallest K2- (resp. -) strong pseudoprime to all the first prime bases. For this purpose we describe procedures for computing and enumerating the two kinds of spsp's to the first 9 prime bases. The entire calculation took about 4000 hours on a PC Pentium IV/1.8GHz. (Recall that a K2-spsp is an spsp of the form: with primes and ; and that a -spsp is an spsp and a Carmichael number of the form: with each prime factor mod .) |
