Le nom de Mersenne resta lier à cette classe de nombres à cause d’une conjecture qu’il a faite en 1644. Il affirmait que les nombres de la forme (2 p - 1) sont premiers . lorsque p = 2, 3, 5, 7, 13, 17, 19, 31, 67, 127 et 257 et qu’ils sont composés pour toute autre valeur de n inférieure à 257. D’après le deuxième tableau ci-après, on constate que pour n = 67 et 257 le nombre n’est pas premier et qu’il l’est pour 61, 89 et 107, nombres omis par Euler. Voici le tableau des 20 plus petits nombres de Mersenne avec des indications sur leur propriété d’être premier ou composé : Rang p Nombre Premier ou composé Nombre premier Nombre premier Nombre premier Nombre premier Nombre premier Nombre premier Nombre premier Un nombre de Mersenne de rang n est égal à la somme des puissances successives de 2 où p varie de à ( n - 1).

Marin Mersenne Our Hero (1588 - 1648) digitized by Doug Anderson Corrections Please Read (4 December 1996) Mersenne was a Minim friar. Minims are not Jesuits. He was, however, educated by the Jesuits. Furthermore, Mersenne was not an Inquisitor. Indeed, he was probably quite a pleasant fellow. Please read these enlightening and scholarly emails that I received. (Learn the fate of his old residence!) Who was Marin Mersenne? You are probably visiting here because of an interest in Mersenne Primes. It was not until the mid 20th century that Mersenne became known primarily for his Prime Number Conjecture. Historically, he was much better known for his correspondence with leading scientists of the day (hence the other Mersenne Mailing List ). Interested in optics, he also been called (no pun intended) the Father of Acoustics. Here are some links that will tell you something about the man himself: a nice biography (and another picture!) courtesy of the Algebra Group WWW Server of the University of St. Andrews, Scotland. Here is a larger version of the same portrait (jpeg, 280x340, 9 KB). Thanks twice to and to another nice biography by Richard S. Westfal

Dates Born: Oize (Maine), 8 Sept. 1588 Died: Paris, 1 Sept. 1648 Dateinfo: Dates Certain Lifespan: 2. Father Occupation: Laborer We are told only that Mersenne was born into a family of laborers. I assume that can only mean his circumstances were poor. 3. Nationality Birth: French Career: French Death: French 4. Education Schooling: Paris Mersenne began his grammar studies at the College of Mans. He entered the new Jesuit college at La Fleche in 1604 and remained there until 1609. In the next two years he studied theology at the Sorbonne. There is no mention of a degree, but it seems quite impossible not to say that he had the equivalent of a B.A. There is no word about how the studies of the son of a laborer were financed. It appears that the Jesuits supported him at La Fleche. There is no word about the two years of study in Paris. I suspect that he entered the Minims as a means to further education and an intellectual life (as, for example, Coronelli later did), but that still leaves the two years unaccounted for. He didn't live on air. 5. Religion

Mersenne continued his education within the order at Nigeon and then at Meaux. He returned to Paris where in 1612 he became a priest at the Place Royale. He taught philosophy at the Minim convent at Nevers from 1614 to 1618. In 1619 he returned again to Paris to the Minims de l'Annociade near Place Royale.

Mersenne, Marin (15881648) Mersenne was a French priest who played an important role in mathematics. Mersenne corresponded with numerous mathematicians throughout Europe, passing important information between them. There were no scientific journals during his time, so he played the role of a disseminator of valuable information. He frequently met with Fermat, Roberval, and Pascal. His own work was in generating prime numbers and extending Galileo's work in acoustics. Mersenne actively defended Galileo and Descartes against attacks from the church.

Mersenne's Accomplishments Many early writers felt that the numbers of the form 2 p - 1 were prime for all primes p, but in 1536 Hudalricus Regius showed that 2 - 1 = 2047 was not prime. By 1603 Pietro Cataldi had correctly verified that 2 - 1 and 2 - 1 were both prime, but then incorrectly stated 2 n -1 was also prime for 23, 29, 31 and 37. In 1640 Fermat showed Cataldi was wrong about 23 and 37; then Euler in 1738 showed Cataldi was also wrong about 29. Sometime later Euler showed Cataldi's assertion about 31 was correct. Marin Mersenne investigated prime numbers and he tried to find a formula that would represent all prime numbers. Although he failed in this, his work on the numbers 2

Institute and Museum of History of Science, Florence, ITALY The main characters Marin Mersenne. Mersenne's scientific contributions span a wide range of interests, ranging from biblical exegesis to philosophy, from mechanics to musical theory and acoustics, from geometry to optics, from pneumatics to linguistics. At another level, beyond the specific results of these intense research activities, Mersenne performed a particularly important role in organising European culture of the time. Among those who came to his convent cell or who entered into close correspondence with him, we find, amongst others, Peiresc, Gassendi, Descartes, Roberval, Beeckman, van Helmont, Fermat, Hobbes, Pascal and Baliani. The French Minim favoured contact between savants , putting them in touch with each other, and promoting debate and scientific cooperation. In the informal role of secretary of the republic of letters, he nursed the plan to establish a European scientific academy. Mersenne participated actively in the debates on the problem of the vacuum, above all during and after his trip to Italy in 1644. He then had the opportunity to assist some barometrical experiments, and discuss with the main players in the Italian scientific movement. He then disseminated their findings in France.

Marin Mersenne From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Marin Mersenne September 8 September 1 ) was a French philosopher and mathematician Born of peasant parents near Oize Sarthe ), he was educated at the Jesuit College of La Flèche , where he was a fellow-pupil and friend of Descartes . In he joined the Minim Friars , and devoted himself to philosophic teaching in various convent schools, including Nevers . He settled eventually in Paris in 1620 at the convent of L'Annonciade. For the next four years he devoted himself entirely to philosophic and theological writing, and published Quaestiones celeberrimae in Genesim L'Impieté des déistes La Vérité des sciences (1624). It is sometimes incorrectly stated that he was a Jesuit; he was educated by Jesuits, but he never joined the Society of Jesus. He taught theology and philosophy at Nevers and Paris. Mersenne is today remembered thanks to his association with the Mersenne primes . However, he was not primarily a mathematician; he wrote about music theory and other subjects. He edited works of Euclid Archimedes , and other Greek mathematicians. But his perhaps most important contribution to the advance of learning was his extensive correspondence (in
