Wilson Prime
A Wilson prime is a prime satisfying
where
is the Wilson quotient, or equivalently,
The first few Wilson primes are 5, 13, and 563 (OEIS A007540). Crandall et al. (1997) showed there are no others less than
(McIntosh 2004), a limit that has subsequently been increased to
(Costa et al. 2012).
