Jelaskan Generalized repunit primes dari Daftar bilangan prima

Of the form (a − 1) / (a − 1) for fixed integer a.

For a = 2, these are the Mersenne primes, while for a = 10 they are the repunit primes.  For other small a, they are given below:

a = 3: 13, 1093, 797161, 3754733257489862401973357979128773, 6957596529882152968992225251835887181478451547013 ()

a = 4: 5 (the only prime for a = 4)

a = 5: 31, 19531, 12207031, 305175781, 177635683940025046467781066894531, 14693679385278593849609206715278070972733319459651094018859396328480215743184089660644531 ()
