Logarithms and 23rd powers

In the OEIS specifically and mathematics in general, $\log x$ refers to the natural logarithm of $x$, whereas all other bases are specified with a subscript.

If $n$ is not a multiple of 47, then either $n^{23}-1$ or $n^{23}+1$ is. Hence the formula for the Legendre symbol $\left(\frac{a}{47}\right)=a^{23}mod47$.

Factorization of some small integers in a quadratic integer ring adjoining the square roots of −23, 23

The commutative quadratic integer ring with unity $\mathbb{\mathbb{Z}}[\sqrt{23}]$, with units of the form $\pm (24+5\sqrt{23}{)}^n$ ($n\in \mathbb{\mathbb{Z}}$), is a unique factorization domain. ${{𝒪}}_{\mathbb{\mathbb{Q}}(\sqrt{-23})}$, on the other hand, is not only not a UFD, it has class number 3, with the consequence that for some numbers with more than one distinct factorization, one factorization might have more prime factors than another.

$n$	${{𝒪}}_{\mathbb{\mathbb{Q}}(\sqrt{-23})}$	$\mathbb{\mathbb{Z}}[\sqrt{23}]$
2	Irreducible	$(5-\sqrt{23})(5+\sqrt{23})$
3		Prime
4	2 2	$(5-\sqrt{23}{)}^2(5+\sqrt{23}{)}^2$
5	Prime
6	2 × 3 OR $(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{-23}}{2})(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{-23}}{2})$	$(5-\sqrt{23})(5+\sqrt{23})3$
7	Prime	$(-1)(4-\sqrt{23})(4+\sqrt{23})$
8	2 3 OR $(\frac{3}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{-23}}{2})(\frac{3}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{-23}}{2})$	$(5-\sqrt{23}{)}^3(5+\sqrt{23}{)}^3$
9	3 2
10	2 × 5	$(5-\sqrt{23})(5+\sqrt{23})5$
11	Prime	$(-1)(9-2\sqrt{23})(9+2\sqrt{23})$
12	2 2 × 3 OR $(\frac{5}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{-23}}{2})(\frac{5}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{-23}}{2})$	$(5-\sqrt{23}{)}^2(5+\sqrt{23}{)}^{2}3$
13	Irreducible	$(6-\sqrt{23})(6+\sqrt{23})$
14	2 × 7	$(-1)(5-\sqrt{23})(5+\sqrt{23})(4-\sqrt{23})(4+\sqrt{23})$
15	3 × 5
16	2 4	$(5-\sqrt{23}{)}^4(5+\sqrt{23}{)}^4$
17	Irreducible	Prime
18	2 × 3 2 OR $(\frac{7}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{-23}}{2})(\frac{7}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{-23}}{2})$	$(5-\sqrt{23})(5+\sqrt{23})3^2$
19	Irreducible	$(-1)(2-\sqrt{23})(2+\sqrt{23})$
20	2 2 × 3	$(5-\sqrt{23})(5+\sqrt{23})5$

Perhaps it does not need to be said that $(-1)(1-\sqrt{23})(1+\sqrt{23})$ is not a distinct factorization of 22, since this is a UFD and we readily see that $(-5-\sqrt{23})(9-2\sqrt{23})=1+\sqrt{23}$.

Ideals really help us make sense of multiple distinct factorizations in ${{𝒪}}_{\mathbb{\mathbb{Q}}(\sqrt{-23})}$.
