Lucas Pseudoprime

In mathematics, Lucas pseudoprimes in number theory are defined in terms of Lucas sequences. Suppose that
U_n(P,Q) = (a^n-b^n)/(a-b)
is a Lucas sequence, and D is the discriminant for the sequence. If p is an odd prime number for which the Jacobi symbol
(D/p) = k \ne 0,
then p is a factor of Up-k. However, there are also composite numbers satisfying this condition. These numbers are called Lucas pseudoprimes, named by analogy with pseudoprimes. In the specific case of the Fibonacci sequence, where D = 5, the first pseudoprimes are 323 and 377; (5/323) and (5/377) are both −1, the 324th Fibonacci number is a multiple of 323, and the 378th is a multiple of 377.
