A new solution to the equation \(\tau(p)\equiv 0\pmod p\)
Journal of integer sequences, Tome 13 (2010) no. 7
The known solutions to the equation $\tau (p) \equiv 0 (mod p)$ were $p = 2, 3, 5$, 7, and 2411. Here we present our method to compute the next solution, which is $p = 7758337633$. There are no other solutions up to $10^{10}$.
