Chen prime

Does the fact that all of them are Chen prime has something to do with their definition (ie do they have to be Chen prime) or is it just coincidence? I notice that the sequence only skips five primes, three of which are Chen primes. 84.197.178.75 (talk) 21:26, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

Why separate the first 11 from the other 4?

Why is the sentence "There are precisely fifteen supersingular prime numbers: the first eleven primes (2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, and 31), as well as 41, 47, 59, and 71" constructed this way? I don't know anything much about this mathematical entity but if there isn't specially about the eleven, why not list them all - there are only fifteen in total? (My only interest is that today I celebrate another lap around the Sun , which happens to be a supersingular prime it would seem ) martyvis (talk) 04:53, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

I am not sure if you realised that the point is that the list includes all primes up to 31, plus 4 others. Elroch (talk) 23:32, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
