It is remarkable that the equation | x^2 | = 2 has no rational solution. But it has a solution in a finite field. I think the old Pythagorean would like the result. Today's mathematics faculties probably don't attach any further importance to the result.

Here is the way I found this sequence independent from the handbook. Order the numbers in the Galois field G(p) symmetrically to zero. One half is denoted as positive numbers, the other as negative. If a is a positive number in this field, then the equation
| x^2 | = a has always a solution if p is a Sophie Germain prime.

Details can be found in my essay, will be published if time permits it.

p is prime and 2p+1 is also prime. I just learned from the "The Handbook of Integer Sequences" ( https://oeis.org ) these are Sophie Germain primes.

This is false and subtile misleading. Since it can be shown that for a Mersenne Prime (p-1)/2 is not a prime number. But the first million primes contain 44842 prime numbers p such that (p-1)/2 is also a prime number. For example are p=15485543 and (p-1)/2=7742771 both prime. Are there infinitely many?

ChatGPT suggested that this question is related to the question of the existence of Mersenne Primes.

#BasicResearch #GIMPs #ChatGPT (37/n)

I am currently writing an essay which discusses the question, if the extension of the natural numbers to the real numbers unavoidable in obtaining a number system which is strong enough to formulate physical theories (like the theory of relativity and quantum mechanics). I came across the question, weather with a prime number p the number (p-1)/2 is also a prime number.

Hi #Fediverse 
I'm MD in internal medicine and cardiology at University Heart Center Freiburg - Bad Krozingen, Germany.
My #research focuses mostly on #basicresearch in #immunocardiology and the role of #macrophages in #cardiovasculardiseases. I’m looking forward to meet people with the same interests and exchange ideas. #science #immunology #MedMastodon #cardiology

Each December, the Science Signaling editors nominate their favorite research papers of the year. This year's candidates include studies on cartilage degradation in osteoarthritis; the regulation of neuronal morphology; an intermicrovillar adhesion complex; targeting host kinases to inhibit SARS-CoV-2; and the cardiotoxicity of the cancer therapeutic doxorubicin. The papers are free to read until the end of January 2023 and can be found here: https://www.science.org/content/page/free-sample-articles-science-signaling #science #BasicResearch
