[ January 25, 2001 ] First, I found a set of three 1001-digit palprimes in arithmetic progression.
Harvey's re-discovery was found after about a 10 hour search on a Pentium III/400. 3 titanic palindromic primes (palprimes)
Second, it occurred to me that while there have been investigations of palprimes in arithmetic progression I knew of no work on consecutive palprimes in arithmetic progression. I started an exhaustive search and rapidly found 3, 4, 5 consecutive palprimes in AP. 6 took longer but the smallest such set finally appeared. It is shown below. Several other sets have also been found. So far, no 7-set has been found, and it may be that an exhaustive search for 7 may not be appropriate. 6 consecutive palindromic primes (palprimes)
Current record [ May 10, 2001 ] see WONplate 99 More on palindromic primes... | ||||||
