Is it possible to do prime factorization for (A + B) before doing the summation? I mean lets suppose that we want to prime factorize A^n + B^n and 1 <= A, B, N <= 1e12 .... how can i do so? or it's impossible and it's a stupid question?..

The following is a related question: If $$$A$$$ and $$$B$$$ are two positive co-prime integers, i.e.
Unable to parse markup [type=CF_MATHJAX]
, does their sumUnable to parse markup [type=CF_MATHJAX]
have any prime factor that appears in $$$A$$$ or $$$B$$$?Another related question: Is it possible to express a prime number $$$p$$$ as
Unable to parse markup [type=CF_MATHJAX]
, where $$$A$$$ and $$$B$$$ are positive integers that are NOT co-prime?The answer is negative for both questions:
$$$A+B$$$ can't have any prime factors in common with $$$A$$$ or $$$B$$$. Because by the Euclidian Algorithm,
Unable to parse markup [type=CF_MATHJAX]
.For the second one, if
Unable to parse markup [type=CF_MATHJAX]
,Unable to parse markup [type=CF_MATHJAX]
. SoUnable to parse markup [type=CF_MATHJAX]
, whereUnable to parse markup [type=CF_MATHJAX]
andUnable to parse markup [type=CF_MATHJAX]
. This contradicts the assumption of $$$p$$$ being prime.
