§27.18 Methods of Computation: Primes
An overview of methods for precise counting of the number of primes not exceeding an arbitrary integer x is given in Crandall and Pomerance (2005, §3.7). … The Sieve of Eratosthenes (Crandall and Pomerance (2005, §3.2)) generates a list of all primes below a given bound. … For small values of n , primality is proven by showing that n is not divisible by any prime not exceeding n . … The ECPP (Elliptic Curve Primality Proving) algorithm handles primes with over 20,000 digits. …

§27.12 Asymptotic Formulas: Primes
Prime Number Theorem
The number of such primes not exceeding x is … A Mersenne prime is a prime of the form 2 p 1 . The largest known prime (2018) is the Mersenne prime 2 82 , 589 , 933 1 . …

§27.16 Cryptography
For example, a code maker chooses two large primes p and q of about 400 decimal digits each. Procedures for finding such primes require very little computer time. … Choose a prime r that does not divide either p 1 or q 1 . Like n , the prime r is made public. …

§27.9 Quadratic Characters
For an odd prime p , the Legendre symbol ( n | p ) is defined as follows. … If p , q are distinct odd primes, then the quadratic reciprocity law states that … If an odd integer P has prime factorization P = r = 1 ν ( n ) p r a r , then the Jacobi symbol ( n | P ) is defined by ( n | P ) = r = 1 ν ( n ) ( n | p r ) a r , with ( n | 1 ) = 1 . …Both (27.9.1) and (27.9.2) are valid with p replaced by P ; the reciprocity law (27.9.3) holds if p , q are replaced by any two relatively prime odd integers P , Q .

8: 27.1 Special Notation
d , k , m , n positive integers (unless otherwise indicated).
( m , n ) greatest common divisor of m , n . If ( m , n ) = 1 , m and n are called relatively prime, or coprime.
( m , n ) = 1 sum taken over m , 1 m n and m relatively prime to n .
p , p 1 , p 2 , prime numbers (or primes): integers ( > 1 ) with only two positive integer divisors, 1 and the number itself.
p , p sum, product extended over all primes.
