    I got my terminology messed up sorry. Makes it hard to ask a question that doesn’t make sense when the terms don’t even make sense...

    The roots of p^2-p-1 are the golden ratio and its negative solution. This brings the Fibonacci numbers into the game. And...

    My thought is to use proof by contradiction assuming \gcd(A, B ,C ,D) = k >1.

    this means that n=p^3-p^2-p=p(p+1)(p-1)-p^2 = n but we need to prove this, but i don't knew how this looks a little bit like it; p|n...

    This probably merits a separate thread in a different section, but: how much time does it make sense to spend helping with...

    The first 5 non-prime peculiars are 15, 95, 287, 1199, and 4607. As an interest in this problem, here's an Excel formula that checks if...

    This is what I get too. Also, it looks like all non-prime peculiars can be represented as n=p(p^2-p-1) where p is prime. At least all...

    All primes are peculiar. If n=prime, d can be n or 1. -if d=1: d(d+1)=2 and this always is a divisor of n(n+1) -if d=n= d(d+1)=n(n+1)...
