2026 = 254³ - 251³ - 83³
The number of iterations of x → x-√x to get to 0 is approximately 2√x - ln(x)/4 - 1. For sufficiently large x, this approximation differs from known true values by approximately 0.069555. The meaning of this constant is a mystery (to me).
Is it always the case that for multiples of 12 (except 12 itself), there exists at least one pair of primes p and q that not only sum to that multiple of 12, but also that their difference is twice a prime?
If not, what's the smallest multiple of 12 (after 12) where this fails to be the case?
What algebra is it where there's an element ε such that ε² = -ε, but that ε is not 0 or -1?
Does this have a name? Specifically or generally.
It seems to be fairly robust and work similarly to Dual numbers, but there are some critical differences.
For example, the "conjugate" of (a+bε) in this system would appear to be (b-a+bε).
Where there's a will, there's a way.
Where there are two, there's a war.
