'''17''' ('''seventeen''') is the [[natural number]] following [[16 (number)|16]] and preceding [[18 (number)|18]]. It is a [[prime number]].


17 was described at [[MIT]] as "the least random number", according to the [[Jargon File]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.catb.org/~esr/jargon/html/R/random-numbers.html|title=random numbers|website=catb.org/}}</ref> This is supposedly because, in a study where respondents were asked to choose a random number from 1 to 20, 17 was the most common choice. This study has been repeated a number of times.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/cosmicvariance/2007/01/30/the-power-of-17/|title=The Power of 17|work=Cosmic Variance|access-date=2010-06-14|archive-date=2008-12-04|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081204111153/http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/cosmicvariance/2007/01/30/the-power-of-17/|url-status=dead}}</ref>
Seventeen is the sum of the first four prime numbers.

17 is a [[Leyland number]]<ref>{{Cite OEIS|A094133|Leyland numbers}}</ref> and [[Leyland number#Leyland primes|Leyland prime]],<ref>{{Cite OEIS|A094133|Leyland prime numbers}}</ref> using 2 & 3 (2<sup>3</sup> + 3<sup>2</sup>). 17 is a [[Leyland number#Leyland number of the second kind|Leyland number of the second kind]]<ref>{{Cite OEIS|A045575|Leyland numbers of the second kind}}</ref> and [[Leyland number#Leyland number of the second kind|Leyland prime of the second kind]],<ref>{{Cite OEIS|A123206|Leyland prime numbers of the second kind}}</ref> using 3 & 4 (3<sup>4</sup> - 4<sup>3</sup>). 17 is a [[Fermat prime]]. 17 is one of six [[lucky numbers of Euler]].<ref>{{Cite OEIS|A014556|Euler's "Lucky" numbers|access-date=2022-11-25}}</ref>
Seventeen is the seventh [[prime number]], which makes it the fourth [[super-prime]],<ref>{{Cite OEIS |A006450 |Prime-indexed primes: primes with prime subscripts. |access-date=2023-06-29 }}</ref> as [[7|seven]] is itself prime.

=== Prime properties ===
Seventeen is the only prime number which is the sum of ''four'' consecutive primes ([[2]], [[3]], [[5]], and [[7]]), as any other four consecutive primes that are added always generate an even number divisible by two.

It forms a [[twin prime]] with [[19 (number)|19]],<ref>{{Cite OEIS |A001359 |Lesser of twin primes |access-date=2022-11-25 }}</ref> a [[cousin prime]] with [[13 (number)|13]],<ref>{{Cite OEIS |A046132 |Larger member p+4 of cousin primes |access-date=2022-11-25 }}</ref> and a [[sexy prime]] with both [[11 (number)|11]] and [[23 (number)|23]].<ref>{{Cite OEIS |A023201 |Primes p such that p + 6 is also prime. (Lesser of a pair of sexy primes) |access-date=2022-11-25 }}</ref> Furthermore,

* It is the sixth [[Mersenne prime]] exponent for numbers of the form <math>2^{n} - 1</math>, yielding 131071.<ref>{{Cite OEIS |A000043 |Mersenne exponents |access-date=2022-11-25 }}</ref>
* It is also one of six [[lucky numbers of Euler]] <math>n</math> which produce primes of the form <math>m^{2}-m+n</math> for <math>m=0, \ldots, n-1.</math> (I.e. for <math>n</math> of 17 and <math>m</math> of 16 there is [[257 (number)|257]].)<ref>{{Cite OEIS |A014556 |Euler's "Lucky" numbers |access-date=2022-11-25 }}</ref>
* 17 can be written in the form <math>x^y + y^x</math> and <math>x^y - y^x</math>; and as such, it is a [[Leyland number#Leyland primes|Leyland prime]] (of the first and [[Leyland number#Leyland number of the second kind|second kind]]):<ref>{{Cite OEIS |A094133 |Leyland primes |access-date=2022-11-25 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite OEIS |A045575 |Leyland primes of the second kind |access-date=2022-11-25 }}</ref>
:<math>2^{3} + 3^{2} = 17 = 3^{4} - 4^{3}.</math>

The number of [[integer partition]]s of 17 into prime parts is 17 (the only number <math>n</math> such that its number of such partitions is <math>n</math>).<ref>{{Cite OEIS |A000607 |Number of partitions of n into prime parts. |access-date=2024-02-12 }}</ref>

==== Fermat prime ====
Seventeen is the third [[Fermat prime]], as it is of the form <math>2^{2^{n}} + 1</math> with <math>n = 2</math>.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://oeis.org/A019434|title=Sloane's A019434 : Fermat primes|website=The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences|publisher=OEIS Foundation|access-date=2016-06-01}}</ref> On the other hand, the seventeenth [[Jacobsthal number|Jacobsthal–Lucas number]] — that is part of a [[sequence]] which includes four Fermat primes (except for [[3]]) — is the fifth and largest known Fermat prime: [[65,537]].<ref>{{Cite OEIS |A014551 |Jacobsthal-Lucas numbers. |access-date=2023-06-29 }}</ref> It is one more than the smallest number with exactly seventeen [[divisor]]s, [[65,536 (number)|65,536]] = 2<sup>16</sup>.<ref>{{Cite OEIS |A005179 |Smallest number with exactly n divisors. |access-date=2023-06-28 }}</ref>


Since seventeen is a Fermat prime, regular [[heptadecagon]]s can be [[constructible polygon|constructed]] with a [[compass]] and unmarked ruler. This was proven by [[Carl Friedrich Gauss]] and ultimately led him to choose mathematics over philology for his studies.<ref>John H. Conway and Richard K. Guy, ''The Book of Numbers''. New York: Copernicus (1996): 11. "Carl Friedrich Gauss (1777–1855) showed that two regular "heptadecagons" (17-sided polygons) could be constructed with ruler and compasses."</ref><ref>[[Theoni Pappas|Pappas, Theoni]], ''Mathematical Snippets'', 2008, p. 42.</ref>

The minimum possible number of givens for a [[sudoku]] puzzle with a unique solution is 17.<ref>{{cite arXiv |eprint=1201.0749 |class=cs.DS |first=Gary |last=McGuire |title=There is no 16-clue sudoku: solving the sudoku minimum number of clues problem |year=2012}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last1=McGuire |first1=Gary |last2=Tugemann |first2=Bastian |last3=Civario |first3=Gilles |date=2014 |title=There is no 16-clue sudoku: Solving the sudoku minimum number of clues problem via hitting set enumeration |journal=Experimental Mathematics |volume=23 |issue=2 |pages=190–217 |doi=10.1080/10586458.2013.870056 |s2cid=8973439}}</ref>
==== Quadratic integer matrix ====
A positive [[Definite quadratic form|definite quadratic]] [[integer matrix]] represents all [[prime number|primes]] when it contains at least the set of seventeen numbers:
:<math>\{2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 67, 73\}.</math>
Only four prime numbers less than the largest member are not part of the set (53, [[59 (number)|59]], 61, and 71).<ref>{{Cite OEIS |A154363 |Numbers from Bhargava's prime-universality criterion theorem }}</ref>

17 (seventeen) is the natural number following 16 and preceding 18. It is a prime number.

17 was described at MIT as "the least random number", according to the Jargon File.[1] This is supposedly because, in a study where respondents were asked to choose a random number from 1 to 20, 17 was the most common choice. This study has been repeated a number of times.[2]

Mathematics

[edit]

17 is a Leyland number[3] and Leyland prime,[4] using 2 & 3 (23 + 32). 17 is a Leyland number of the second kind[5] and Leyland prime of the second kind,[6] using 3 & 4 (34 - 43). 17 is a Fermat prime. 17 is one of six lucky numbers of Euler.[7]

Since seventeen is a Fermat prime, regular heptadecagons can be constructed with a compass and unmarked ruler. This was proven by Carl Friedrich Gauss and ultimately led him to choose mathematics over philology for his studies.[8][9]

The minimum possible number of givens for a sudoku puzzle with a unique solution is 17.[10][11]

Geometric properties

[edit]

Two-dimensions

[edit]
The Spiral of Theodorus, with a maximum sixteen right triangles laid edge-to-edge before one revolution is completed. The largest triangle has a hypotenuse of
  • Either 16 or 18 unit squares can be formed into rectangles with perimeter equal to the area; and there are no other natural numbers with this property. The Platonists regarded this as a sign of their peculiar propriety; and Plutarch notes it when writing that the Pythagoreans "utterly abominate" 17, which "bars them off from each other and disjoins them".[22]

17 is the least for the Theodorus Spiral to complete one revolution.[23] This, in the sense of Plato, who questioned why Theodorus (his tutor) stopped at when illustrating adjacent right triangles whose bases are units and heights are successive square roots, starting with . In part due to Theodorus’s work as outlined in Plato’s Theaetetus, it is believed that Theodorus had proved all the square roots of non-square integers from 3 to 17 are irrational by means of this spiral.

Enumeration of icosahedron stellations

[edit]

In three-dimensional space, there are seventeen distinct fully supported stellations generated by an icosahedron.[24] The seventeenth prime number is 59, which is equal to the total number of stellations of the icosahedron by Miller's rules.[25][26] Without counting the icosahedron as a zeroth stellation, this total becomes 58, a count equal to the sum of the first seven prime numbers (2 + 3 + 5 + 7 ... + 17).[27] Seventeen distinct fully supported stellations are also produced by truncated cube and truncated octahedron.[24]

Four-dimensional zonotopes

[edit]

Seventeen is also the number of four-dimensional parallelotopes that are zonotopes. Another 34, or twice 17, are Minkowski sums of zonotopes with the 24-cell, itself the simplest parallelotope that is not a zonotope.[28]

Abstract algebra

[edit]

Seventeen is the highest dimension for paracompact Vineberg polytopes with rank mirror facets, with the lowest belonging to the third.[29]

17 is a supersingular prime, because it divides the order of the Monster group.[30] If the Tits group is included as a non-strict group of Lie type, then there are seventeen total classes of Lie groups that are simultaneously finite and simple (see classification of finite simple groups). In base ten, (17, 71) form the seventh permutation class of permutable primes.[31]

Other notable properties

The elementary particles in the Standard Model of physics

Physics

[edit]

Seventeen is the number of elementary particles with unique names in the Standard Model of physics.[33]

Chemistry

[edit]

Group 17 of the periodic table is called the halogens. The atomic number of chlorine is 17.

Biology

[edit]

Some species of cicadas have a life cycle of 17 years (i.e. they are buried in the ground for 17 years between every mating season).

In religion

[edit]

Other fields

[edit]

Seventeen is:

  • The total number of syllables in a haiku (5 + 7 + 5).
  • The maximum number of strokes of a Chinese radical.

Music

[edit]

Where Pythagoreans saw 17 in between 16 from its Epogdoon of 18 in distaste,[34] the ratio 18:17 was a popular approximation for the equal tempered semitone (12-tone) during the Renaissance.
