List of superparticular intervals: Difference between revisions

[[Wikipedia: Størmer's theorem|Størmer's theorem]] states that, in each limit, there are only a finite number of superparticular ratios. Many of the sections below are complete. For example, there is no 3-limit superparticular ratio other than [[2/1]], [[3/2]], [[4/3]], and [[9/8]]. {{OEIS| A002071 }} gives the number of superparticular ratios in each prime limit, {{OEIS| A145604 }} shows the increment from limit to limit, and {{OEIS| A117581 }} gives the largest numerator for each prime limit (with some exceptions, such as the 23-limit, where the largest value is smaller than that of a smaller prime limit, in this case the 19-limit).
