Hi George
I can supply working examples for ECM on 2^m+1 or more specifically for
Fm = 2^(2^m)+1 cases for known factors of Fermat Numbers from F10 to F23.
I can provide sets with (Fm, prime factor, sigma, smooth ECM group order).
I just need to verify them with Prime95 v22.12 to avoid any egg-on-
Brian
For M1123 the factor 777288435261989969 using sigma = 1459848859275459 has
a group order of 777288435636813540 = 2^2*3*5*11*31*1823*38917*535489 thus:
1. In stage 1: B1 >= 535489 is required
2. Noting that 534241 is 44147th prime and 535489 the 44230th prime;
In stage 2: B1 >= 38917 is
