0 references
This article provides formal proofs of basic properties of Mersenne numbers, i. e. numbers of the form 2 n - 1, and especially of Mersenne primes. In particular, an efficient, verified, and executable version of the Lucas–Lehmer test is developed. This test decides primality for Mersenne numbers in time polynomial in n .
