%N A154291 Primes of the form 4x^3 + 27y^2, with x<0.
%C A154291 For each prime p, the elliptic curve 27y^2 = 4x^3 + p must be solved to determine whether there is an integer solution with x positive. About 2/3 of all primes can be eliminated because p-4x^3 is never divisible by 27. The remaining primes are congruent to +-5 (mod 18). Hence this sequence is a subsequence of A129806. Half of those primes can be eliminated because even when 27 does divide p-4x^3, the quotient must equal 1 (mod 4) in order to be a square. Hence all these primes must equal 23 or 31 (mod 36). James Buddenhagen used APECS and I used Sage to examine the elliptic curves. The first difficult prime is 1831. All the elliptic curves with p = 23 or 31 (mod 36) appear to have trivial torsion and rank 0 or 2.
%C A154291 See the link to the Sage/Python program to see how the problem with 1831 was resolved. The first prime producing an elliptic curve of rank 4 is 19427.
