Records indicate that he served as a company clerk. He also
Pierpont prime these operations are the ones such that the totient of is 3-smooth. Since the totient of a prime is formed by subtracting one from it, the primes for which Pierpont's construction works are exactly the Pierpont primes. However, Pierpont did not describe the form of the composite numbers with 3-smooth totients. As Gleason later showed, these numbers are exactly the ones of the form given above. The smallest prime that is not a Pierpont (or Fermat) prime is 11; therefore, the hendecagon is the smallest regular polygon that cannot be constructed with compass, straightedge and angle trisector (or origami, or
