Everest–Miller–Stephens primality conjecture for elliptic divisibility sequences
Let be an elliptic divisibility sequence. Primality conjecture. The sequence contains only finitely many prime terms. Everest, Miller, and Stephens proved this conjecture for magnified elliptic divisibility sequences; the general statement remains presented here as a conjecture. The contrast with the Fibonacci sequence, for which primes are conjectured to occur infinitely often, motivates the question.
