%N Absolute Euler pseudoprimes: odd composite numbers n such that a^((n-1)/2) == +-1 (mod n) for every a coprime to n.

%C These numbers n have the property that, for each prime divisor p, p-1 divides (n-1)/2. E.g., 2465 = 5*17*29; 1232/4 = 308; 1232/16 = 77; 1232/28 = 44. - _Karsten Meyer_, Nov 08 2005

%C All these numbers are Carmichael numbers (A002997). - _Daniel Lignon_, Sep 12 2015

%C These are odd composite numbers n such that b^((n-1)/2) == 1 (mod n) for every base b that is a quadratic residue modulo n and coprime to n. There are no odd composite numbers n such that b^((n-1)/2) == -1 (mod n) for every base b that is a quadratic non-residue modulo n and coprime to n. Note: the absolute Euler-Jacobi pseudoprimes do not exist. Theorem: if an absolute Euler pseudoprime n is a Proth number, then b^((n-1)/2) == 1 for every b coprime to n; by Proth's theorem. Such numbers are 1729, 8355841, 40280065, 53282340865, ...; for example, 1729 = 27*2^6 + 1 with 27 < 2^6. However, it seems that all absolute Euler pseudoprimes n satisfy the stronger congruence b^((n-1)/2) == 1 (mod n) for every b coprime to n, as evidenced by the modified Korselt's criterion (see the first comment). It should be noted that these are odd numbers n such that Carmichael's lambda(n) divides (n-1)/2. Also, these are odd numbers n > 1 coprime to Sum_{k=1..n-1} k^{(n-1)/2}. - _Amiram Eldar_ and _Thomas Ordowski_, Apr 29 2019

%C Carmichael numbers k such that (p-1)|(k-1)/2 for each prime p|k. These are odd composite numbers k with half (the maximal possible fraction) of the numbers 1 <= b < k coprime to k that are bases in which k is an Euler-Jacobi pseudoprime, i.e. A329726((k-1)/2)/phi(k) = 1/2. - _Amiram Eldar_, Nov 20 2019
