11 (number) to be a Mersenne prime, the converse is not true: 2 − 1 = 2047 which is 23 × 89. 11 raised to the nth power is the nth row of Pascal's Triangle. (This works for any base, but the number eleven must be changed to the number represented as 11 in that base; for example, in duodecimal this must be done using thirteen.) 11 is a Heegner number, meaning that the ring of integers of the field formula_1 has the property of unique factorization. One consequence of this is that there exists at most one point on the elliptic
Prime number is a consequence of Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares, which states that an odd prime formula_20 is expressible as the sum of two squares, formula_187, and therefore factorizable as formula_188, exactly when formula_20 is 1 mod 4. Not every ring is a unique factorization domain. For instance, in the ring of numbers formula_190 (for integers formula_34 and formula_35) the number formula_193 has two factorizations formula_194, where neither of the four factors can be reduced any further, so it does not have a unique factorization. In order to extend unique factorization to a larger class of rings, the notion
