Carmichael numbers of the form $\ n^2+1\ $

124 Views Asked by At

For which positive integers $\ n\ $ is $\ N:=n^2+1\ $ a Carmichael-number ?

The smallest examples are summarized in this table (the program is currently still in progress) :

gp > forstep(m=2,10^9,2,n=m^2+1;if(Mod(2,n)^(n-1)==1,if(carm(n)==1,print(m,"   ",n,"   ",factor(n)))))

1560   2433601   [17, 1; 37, 1; 53, 1; 73, 1]
8208   67371265   [5, 1; 13, 1; 37, 1; 109, 1; 257, 1]

Is it known whether infinite many such Carmichael numbers exist ? And how can I enumerate them more efficiently ?
