Nonexistence conjecture for prime -palindromes
Nonexistence conjecture for prime -palindromes
Let be the additive function defined by for primes and for prime powers with . For integers and , call a -palindrome in base if , , and , where is the integer obtained by reversing the base- digits of ; in base , call it a -palindrome. Nonexistence conjecture for prime -palindromes. There are no prime -palindromes. The claim is motivated by extensive computer calculations and complements known infinite families of composite -palindromes; whether any prime examples exist remains open.
