COMMENTS
Strong impostors not == 0 (mod 4) have the property that, even though they are composite, when paired with any odd prime r such that (s,r) = 1, they produce valid RSA key pairs. More specifically, if n=sr, all a in Z_n will be correctly encrypted and decrypted for any (e,d) key pair such that ed == 1 mod (s-1)(r-1). They include the Carmichael numbers and are squarefree. The set of their odd prime factors is always normal: If p_i and p_j are odd prime factors, no p_i == 1 mod p_j.
