The [[Riesel problem]] is to find the smallest [[Riesel number]] {{Vk}} (odd) such that {{Kbn|k|2|n}} is composite for every {{Vn}} ≥ 1.

The [[Riesel problem 1|Riesel problem]] is to find the smallest [[Riesel number]] {{Vk}} (odd) such that {{Kbn|k|2|n}} is composite for every {{Vn}} &ge; 1.<br>
 +
This page was inspired by two threads of the [[MersenneForum]] [http://www.mersenneforum.org/showthread.php?t=9444 here] and [http://www.mersenneforum.org/showthread.php?t=9440 here] started by (jasong).<br>
 +
Except a few numbers of the odd {{Vk}}'s of the Riesel problem a prime was found (mostly a higher {{Vn}}). But what about {{Vk}}'s with only a prime with very low {{Vn}}, say {{Vn}} = 1?<br>
 +
For example: [[Riesel_prime_2_17861|{{Vk}} = 17861]] is prime for {{Vn}} = 2 and no other {{Vn}} &lt; 50000. So the even value {{Vk}} = 17861 • 2 • 2 = 71444 has no prime for {{Vn}} &lt; 49998.<br>
 +
Accordingly there comes up a question: Is there any even {{Vk}} for which {{Kbn|k|2|n}} is never prime?

==Data==
 +
The table contains all 61 odd {{Vk}} &lt; 254601 which got only small prime(s) for {{Vn}} &lt; 10 and no other for {{Vn}} &lt; 1000.<br>
 +
9 candidates of them got no other prime for {{Vn}} &lt; 50000.<br>
 +
These computations were made by [[Jens Kruse Andersen]] and (jasong) in Oct 2007.

Overview

The Riesel problem is to find the smallest Riesel number k (odd) such that k•2n-1 is composite for every n ≥ 1.
This page was inspired by two threads of the MersenneForum here and here started by (jasong).
Except a few numbers of the odd k's of the Riesel problem a prime was found (mostly a higher n). But what about k's with only a prime with very low n, say n = 1?
For example: k = 17861 is prime for n = 2 and no other n < 50000. So the even value k = 17861 • 2 • 2 = 71444 has no prime for n < 49998.
Accordingly there comes up a question: Is there any even k for which k•2n-1 is never prime?

Data

The table contains all 61 odd k < 254601 which got only small prime(s) for n < 10 and no other for n < 1000.
9 candidates of them got no other prime for n < 50000.
These computations were made by Jens Kruse Andersen and (jasong) in Oct 2007.
