The cubic-prime-power projective-prime conjecture

At least 5 years old · documented by

Let pp be a prime, set q=p3q=p^3, and define

m=1+q+q2.m=1+q+q^2.

The cubic-prime-power projective-prime conjecture. There are infinitely many values of q=p3q=p^3 such that m=1+q+q2m=1+q+q^2 is prime. The conjecture is supported by an extensive computational search, but remains open.
