Jean Penné

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 reflects on the primes currently on the list. (Many of the terms that are used here are explained on another page.)

I was born in 1935, and I am a retired Research Engineer from C.N.R.S. My main hobbies are Number theory, Mathematics of computation, and indeed, big primes hunting ! I am computing for GIMPS since October 1996, and made efforts to build programs able to prove the primality of other special form numbers. This succeeded recently to make the LLR program available.

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

I am Jean Penné and I would like to
