Abstract:

Numbers of the form (6m+1)(12m+1)(18m+1) where all three factors are simultaneously prime are the best known examples of Carmichael numbers. In this paper we tabulate the counts of such numbers up to 10^n for each n <= 42. We also derive a function for estimating these counts that is remarkably accurate.
