Information: - A mathematician is someone who uses an extensive knowledge of mathematics in his/her work, typically to solve mathematical problems. - A mathematical problem is a problem that is amenable to being represented, analyzed, and possibly solved, with the methods of mathematics. This can be a real-world problem, such as computing the orbits of the planets in the solar system, or a problem of a more abstract nature, such as Hilbert's problems.<br> It can also be a problem referring to the nature of mathematics itself, such as Russell's Paradox. - Samuel Yates ( May 10 , 1919 in Savannah , Georgia -- April 22 , 1991 in New Brunswick , NJ ) was a computer engineer and mathematician who first described unique primes in the 1980s . In 1984 he began the list of '' Largest Known Primes '' and coined the name titanic prime for any prime with 1,000 or more decimal digits . He also called those who proved their primality '' titans '' . He is the author of Repunits and Repetends ( Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 82 - 50241 , Copyright 1982 by Samuel Yates and printed by Star Publishing Co. , Boynton Beach , Florida 33435 ) . Samuel Yatrofsky , married May Berkowitz on April 5 , 1941 , in Brooklyn , NY , and along with his wife , brother and brother 's wife , changed their surname from Yatrofsky to Yates on June 25 , 1943 , in Burlington County , New Jersey , due to anti-Semitism . His wife , Mae Berkowitz ( Yatrofsky ) Yates , survives him and lives in Boca Raton , FL . Samuel is also survived by two daughters , one son and many grandchildren and great grandchildren . He is buried in Beth Israel Jewish Cemetery in Woodbridge , NJ . - Titanic prime is a term coined by Samuel Yates in the 1980s, denoting a prime number of at least 1000 decimal digits. Few such primes were known then, but the required size is trivial for modern computers. - Mathematics (from Greek "mathma", knowledge, study, learning) is the study of topics such as quantity (numbers), structure, space, and change. There is a range of views among mathematicians and philosophers as to the exact scope and definition of mathematics. - A prime number (or a prime) is a natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself. A natural number greater than 1 that is not a prime number is called a composite number. For example, 5 is prime because 1 and 5 are its only positive integer factors, whereas 6 is composite because it has the divisors 2 and 3 in addition to 1 and 6. The fundamental theorem of arithmetic establishes the central role of primes in number theory: any integer greater than 1 can be expressed as a product of primes that is unique up to ordering. The uniqueness in this theorem requires excluding 1 as a prime because one can include arbitrarily many instances of 1 in any factorization, e.g., 3, 1 3, 1 1 3, etc. are all valid factorizations of 3.
