COMMENT

The ratio of the count of primes p <= n such that p-1 is cube-free to the count of primes <= n converges to 0.69.. . This implies that roughly 70% of the primes less one are cube-free. This compares to about 0.37 of the primes less one are square-free.

EXAMPLE

43 is included because 43-1 = 2*3*7. 41 is omitted because 41-1 = 2^3*5.

97 is omitted because 96 = 2^5*3 since higher powers are also tested for

exclusion.

PROGRAM

(PARI) powerfreep(n, p) = { c=0; pc=0; forprime(x=2, n, pc++; if(ispowerfree(x-1, p), c++; \ print1(x", "); ) ); print(); print(c", "pc", "c/pc+.0) } ispowerfree(m, p1) = { flag=1; y=component(factor(m), 2); for(i=1, length(y), if(y[i] >= p1, flag=0; break); ); return(flag) }
