Supersingular prime (moonshine theory) Supersingular prime (moonshine theory) In the mathematical branch of moonshine theory, a supersingular prime is a prime number that divides the order of the Monster group "M", which is the largest sporadic simple group. There are precisely fifteen supersingular prime numbers: the first eleven primes (2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, and 31), as well as 41, 47, 59, and 71. The non-supersingular primes are 37, 43, 53, 61, 67, and any prime number greater than or equal to 73. All supersingular primes are Chen primes, but 37, 53, and 67 are also Chen primes, and
Prime number leads to a different but equivalent definition of the primes: they are the numbers with exactly two positive divisors, 1 and the number itself. Yet another way to say the same thing is that a number formula_1 is prime if it is greater than one and if none of the numbers formula_10 divides formula_1 evenly. The first 25 prime numbers (all the prime numbers less than 100) are: No even number formula_1 greater than 2 is prime because any such number can be expressed as the product formula_13. Therefore, every prime number other than 2 is an odd number, and
