Hello Edwin and Allan!

Thank you for your active interest in the topic.

Let LPF(n) be the Least Prime Factor of n. The provable theorems:
(1) There are no primes p such that LPF((p+1)2^n-1) < p for all n > 0.
(2) There are no primes p such that LPF((p-1)2^n+1) < p for all n > 0.

Have a nice Sunday!

Thomas
