A titan, as defined by Samuel Yates, is anyone who has found a titanic prime. This page provides data on those that have found these primes. The data below only reflect on the primes currently on the list. (Many of the terms that are used here are explained on another page.)

Descriptive Data: (report abuse)

This program is used for sieving numbers of some popular forms that are not supported in NewPGen or any of the other popular sieves. This includes:

factorials (n!+/-1)
multi-factorials (n!x+/-1 for x > 1, e.g. n!5+1 = n!!!!!+1)
primorial (p# +/- 1)
Cullens/Woodalls (n*2^n+/-1)
Generalized Cullens/Woodalls (n*b^n+/-1 for b > 2), x^y+y^x
Cylotomics of factorial/multifactorial form (Phi(a, n!) and Phi(a, n!x) for a <= 24)
Carol/Kynea (2^n +/- 1)^2 - 2
x^y + y^x
k*b^b +/- 1
Hyper Cullen/Woodall k^b*b^k +/- 1
Near Cullent/Woodall (k +/- 1)*b^k +/- 1

MultiSieve is no longer supported. It has been replaced by the mtsieve framework

Surname: MultiSieve (used for alphabetizing and in codes)
Unverified primes are omitted from counts and lists until verification completed.
