Fibonacci PseudoprimeIn number theory, a pseudoprime is a number that passes some test that all primes pass, but is actually composite. A Fibonacci pseudoprime is a composite integer n that satisfies the following conditions: - P > 0 and Q = +1 or −1
- Vn is congruent to P mod n.
Here the notation refers to the Lucas sequence with parameters P, Q producing a series of numbers Un, Vn. It is conjectured that there are no even Fibonacci pseudoprimes (see Somer). A strong Fibonacci pseudoprime may defined as follows (see Mller and Oswald): - An odd composite integer n is also a Carmichael number
- 2(pi + 1) | (n − 1) or 2(pi + 1) | (n − pi) for every prime pi dividing n.
