How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T14030446 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

A.
Miller primality test
The Miller primality test is a randomized algorithm used to determine whether a number is prime with high confidence, forming the basis of the widely used Miller–Rabin primality test in computational number theory and cryptography.
-
B.
Fermat primality test
The Fermat primality test is a probabilistic algorithm that checks whether a number is prime by verifying congruences derived from Fermat's little theorem.
-
C.
Adleman–Pomerance–Rumely primality test
The Adleman–Pomerance–Rumely primality test is an early deterministic algorithm in computational number theory used to determine whether a given number is prime, notable for its theoretical importance in the development of modern primality testing methods.
-
D.
AKS primality test
The AKS primality test is a landmark deterministic polynomial-time algorithm that can conclusively determine whether a number is prime without relying on unproven assumptions.
-
E.
Mersenne
Mersenne is a French surname most famously associated with Marin Mersenne, a 17th-century mathematician and theologian known for his work on prime numbers and acoustics.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
