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 problem. The problem asked for the value of the infinite sum formula_71 which today can be recognized as the value formula_72 of the Riemann zeta function. This function is closely connected to the prime numbers and to one of the most significant unsolved problems in mathematics, the Riemann hypothesis. Euler showed that formula_73. The reciprocal of this number, formula_74, is the limiting probability that two random numbers selected uniformly from a large range are relatively prime (have no factors in common). The distribution of primes in the large, such as the question how many primes are smaller than a given,
