V. Šimerka found the first 7 terms of this sequence 25 years before Carmichael (see the link and also the remark of K. Conrad). - Peter Luschny, Apr 01 2019
k is composite and squarefree and for p prime, p|k => p-1|k-1.
An odd composite number k is a pseudoprime to base a iff a^(k-1) == 1 (mod k). A Carmichael number is an odd composite number k which is a pseudoprime to base a for every number a prime to k.
A composite odd number k is a Carmichael number if and only if k is squarefree and p-1 divides k-1 for every prime p dividing k. (Korselt, 1899)
Ghatage and Scott prove using Fermat's little theorem that (a+b)^k == a^k + b^k (mod k) (the freshman's dream) exactly when k is a prime (A000040) or a Carmichael number. - Jonathan Vos Post, Aug 31 2005
Alford et al. have constructed a Carmichael number with 10333229505 prime factors, and have also constructed Carmichael numbers with m prime factors for every m between 3 and 19565220. - Jonathan Vos Post, Apr 01 2012
Thomas Wright proved that for any numbers b and M in N with gcd(b,M) = 1, there are infinitely many Carmichael numbers k such that k == b (mod M). - Jonathan Vos Post, Dec 27 2012
Composite numbers k relatively prime to 1^(k-1) + 2^(k-1) + ... + (k-1)^(k-1). - Thomas Ordowski, Oct 09 2013
Composite numbers k such that A063994(k) = A000010(k). - Thomas Ordowski, Dec 17 2013
Odd composite numbers k such that k divides A002445((k-1)/2). - Robert Israel, Oct 02 2015
If k is a Carmichael number and gcd(b-1,k)=1, then (b^k-1)/(b-1) is a pseudoprime to base b by Steuerwald's theorem; see the reference in A005935. - Thomas Ordowski, Apr 17 2016
Composite numbers k such that p^k == p (mod k) for every prime p <= A285512(k). - Max Alekseyev and Thomas Ordowski, Apr 20 2017
If a composite m < A285549(n) and p^m == p (mod m) for every prime p <= prime(n), then m is a Carmichael number. - Thomas Ordowski, Apr 23 2017
The sequence of all Carmichael numbers can be defined as follows: a(1) = 561, a(n+1) = smallest composite k > a(n) such that p^k == p (mod k) for every prime p <= n+2. - Thomas Ordowski, Apr 24 2017
An integer m > 1 is a Carmichael number if and only if m is squarefree and each of its prime divisors p satisfies both s_p(m) >= p and s_p(m) == 1 (mod p-1), where s_p(m) is the sum of the base-p digits of m. Then m is odd and has at least three prime factors. For each prime factor p, the sharp bound p <= a*sqrt(m) holds with a = sqrt(17/33) = 0.7177.... See Kellner and Sondow 2019. - Bernd C. Kellner and Jonathan Sondow, Mar 03 2019
Carmichael numbers are special polygonal numbers A324973. The rank of the n-th Carmichael number is A324975(n). See Kellner and Sondow 2019. - Jonathan Sondow, Mar 26 2019
An odd composite number m is a Carmichael number iff m divides denominator(Bernoulli(m-1)). The quotient is A324977. See Pomerance, Selfridge, & Wagstaff, p. 1006, and Kellner & Sondow, section on Bernoulli numbers. - Jonathan Sondow, Mar 28 2019
This is setwise difference A324050 \ A008578. Many of the same identities apply also to A324050. - Antti Karttunen, Apr 22 2019
If k is a Carmichael number, then A309132(k) = A326690(k). The proof generalizes that of Theorem in A309132. - Jonathan Sondow, Jul 19 2019
Composite numbers k such that A111076(k)^(k-1) == 1 (mod k). Proof: the multiplicative order of A111076(k) mod k is equal to lambda(k), where lambda(k) = A002322(k), so lambda(k) divides k-1, qed. - Thomas Ordowski, Nov 14 2019
For all positive integers m, m^k - m is divisible by k, for all k > 1, iff k is either a Carmichael number or a prime, as is used in the proof by induction for Fermat's Little Theorem. Also related are A182816 and A121707. - Richard R. Forberg, Jul 18 2020
From Amiram Eldar, Dec 04 2020, Apr 21 2024: (Start)
Ore (1948) called these numbers "Numbers with the Fermat property", or, for short, "F numbers".
Also called "absolute pseudoprimes". According to Erdős (1949) this term was coined by D. H. Lehmer.
Named by Beeger (1950) after the American mathematician Robert Daniel Carmichael (1879 - 1967). (End)
For ending digit 1,3,5,7,9 through the first 10000 terms, we see 80.3, 4.1, 7.4, 3.8 and 4.3% apportionment respectively. Why the bias towards ending digit "1"? - Bill McEachen, Jul 16 2021
It seems that for any m > 1, the remainders of Carmichael numbers modulo m are biased towards 1. The number of terms congruent to 1 modulo 4, 6, 8, ..., 24 among the first 10000 terms: 9827, 9854, 8652, 8034, 9682, 5685, 6798, 7820, 7880, 3378 and 8518. - Jianing Song, Nov 08 2021
Alford, Granville and Pomerance conjectured in their 1994 paper that a statement analogous to Bertrand's Postulate could be applied to Carmichael numbers. This has now been proved by Daniel Larsen, see link below. - David James Sycamore, Jan 17 2023

Weak Carmichael numbers that are not prime powers [Mestrovic] - N. J. A. Sloane, Aug 25 2013
The values of this sequence together with the set of prime powers (A000961) forms the sequence A087441.

Examples

			45 is in A087442 because it is not a prime power and because its prime divisors are 3 and 5 and 3-1=2 as well as 5-1=4 divide 45-1 = 44.

Let P(m) denote the prime factors of m and C(m) = Clausen(m-1, 1) (cf. A160014) then Product_{p in P(C(m)) setminus P(m)} p is in this sequence provided P(m) is a subset of P(C(m)).

Examples

			Let n = 561 then P(561) = {3, 11, 17} and P(Clausen(560,1)) = {2, 3, 5, 11, 17, 29, 41, 71, 113, 281}. Since P(561) is a subset of P(Clausen(560, 1)), a(18) = 2*5*29*41*71*113*281 = 26805565070.
