Bruckman–Anderson conjecture on the density of Fibonacci entry-point divisibility
Let , , and for be the Fibonacci sequence. For a prime , let be the smallest positive integer such that . For a positive integer , define
and
when this limit exists. For a prime power with , and for an arbitrary positive integer , define
Bruckman–Anderson conjecture. If is a prime power with , then
For an arbitrary positive integer ,
where the product is over all prime powers occurring in the prime factorization of . The conjecture gives the expected density of primes whose Fibonacci entry point is divisible by , refining the known density for even Fibonacci entry points. The source presents this as a conjecture based on numerical data; its resolution is not stated here.
