 التعريف والخصائص

Let $n$ be a natural number. We define the Kaprekar function for base $b>1$ and power $p>0$ $F_{p,b}:\mathbb {N} \rightarrow \mathbb {N}$ to be the following:

$F_{p,b}(n)=\alpha +\beta$,

where $\beta =n^{2}{\bmod {b}}^{p}$ and

$\alpha ={\frac {n^{2}-\beta }{b^{p}}}$

A natural number $n$ is a $p$-Kaprekar number if it is a fixed point for $F_{p,b}$, which occurs if $F_{p,b}(n)=n$. $0$ and $1$ are trivial Kaprekar numbers for all $b$ and $p$, all other Kaprekar numbers are nontrivial Kaprekar numbers.

For example, in base 10, 45 is a 2-Kaprekar number, because

$\beta =n^{2}{\bmod {b}}^{p}=45^{2}{\bmod {1}}0^{2}=25$

$\alpha ={\frac {n^{2}-\beta }{b^{p}}}={\frac {45^{2}-25}{10^{2}}}=20$

$F_{2,10}(45)=\alpha +\beta =20+25=45$

A natural number $n$ is a sociable Kaprekar number if it is a periodic point for $F_{p,b}$, where $F_{p,b}^{k}(n)=n$ for a positive integer $k$ (where $F_{p,b}^{k}$ is the $k$th iterate of $F_{p,b}$), and forms a cycle of period $k$. A Kaprekar number is a sociable Kaprekar number with $k=1$, and a amicable Kaprekar number is a sociable Kaprekar number with $k=2$.

The number of iterations $i$ needed for $F_{p,b}^{i}(n)$ to reach a fixed point is the Kaprekar function's persistence of $n$, and undefined if it never reaches a fixed point.

There are only a finite number of $p$-Kaprekar numbers and cycles for a given base $b$, because if $n=b^{p}+m$, where $m>0$ then

${\begin{aligned}n^{2}&=(b^{p}+m)^{2}\\&=b^{2p}+2mb^{p}+m^{2}\\&=(b^{p}+2m)b^{p}+m^{2}\\\end{aligned}}$

and $\beta =m^{2}$, $\alpha =b^{p}+2m$, and $F_{p,b}(n)=b^{p}+2m+m^{2}=n+(m^{2}+m)>n$. Only when $n\leq b^{p}$ do Kaprekar numbers and cycles exist.

If $d$ is any divisor of $p$, then $n$ is also a $p$-Kaprekar number for base $b^{p}$.

In base $b=2$, all even perfect numbers are Kaprekar numbers. More generally, any numbers of the form $2^{n}(2^{n+1}-1)$ or $2^{n}(2^{n+1}+1)$ for natural number $n$ are Kaprekar numbers in base 2.

We can define the set $K(N)$ for a given integer $N$ as the set of integers $X$ for which there exist natural numbers $A$ and $B$ satisfying the Diophantine equation

$X^{2}=AN+B$, where $0\leq B<N$

$X=A+B$

An $n$-Kaprekar number for base $b$ is then one which lies in the set $K(b^{n})$.

It was shown in 2000 that there is a bijection between the unitary divisors of $N-1$ and the set $K(N)$ defined above. Let $\operatorname {Inv} (a,c)$ denote the multiplicative inverse of $a$ modulo $c$, namely the least positive integer $m$ such that $am=1{\bmod {c}}$, and for each unitary divisor $d$ of $N-1$ let $e={\frac {N-1}{d}}$ and $\zeta (d)=d\ {\text{Inv}}(d,e)$. Then the function $\zeta$ is a bijection from the set of unitary divisors of $N-1$ onto the set $K(N)$. In particular, a number $X$ is in the set $K(N)$ if and only if $X=d\ {\text{Inv}}(d,e)$ for some unitary divisor $d$ of $N-1$.

The numbers in $K(N)$ occur in complementary pairs, $X$ and $N-X$. If $d$ is a unitary divisor of $N-1$ then so is $e={\frac {N-1}{d}}$, and if $X=d\operatorname {Inv} (d,e)$ then $N-X=e\operatorname {Inv} (e,d)$.

 Kaprekar numbers for $F_{p,b}$

 b = 4k + 3 and p = 2n + 1

Let $k$ and $n$ be natural numbers, the number base $b=4k+3=2(2k+1)+1$, and $p=2n+1$. Then:

• $X_{1}={\frac {b^{p}-1}{2}}=(2k+1)\sum _{i=0}^{p-1}b^{i}$ is a Kaprekar number.

Proof

Let

${\begin{aligned}X_{1}&={\frac {b^{p}-1}{2}}\\&={\frac {b-1}{2}}\sum _{i=0}^{p-1}b^{i}\\&={\frac {4k+3-1}{2}}\sum _{i=0}^{2n+1-1}b^{i}\\&=(2k+1)\sum _{i=0}^{2n}b^{i}\end{aligned}}$

Then,

${\begin{aligned}X_{1}^{2}&=\left({\frac {b^{p}-1}{2}}\right)^{2}\\&={\frac {b^{2p}-2b^{p}+1}{4}}\\&={\frac {b^{p}(b^{p}-2)+1}{4}}\\&={\frac {(4k+3)^{2n+1}(b^{p}-2)+1}{4}}\\&={\frac {(4k+3)^{2n}(b^{p}-2)(4k+4)-(4k+3)^{2n}(b^{p}-2)+1}{4}}\\&={\frac {-(4k+3)^{2n}(b^{p}-2)+1}{4}}+(k+1)(4k+3)^{2n}(b^{p}-2)\\&={\frac {-(4k+3)^{2n-1}(b^{p}-2)(4k+4)+(4k+3)^{2n-1}(b^{p}-2)+1}{4}}+(k+1)b^{2n}(b^{2n+1}-2)\\&={\frac {(4k+3)^{2n-1}(b^{p}-2)+1}{4}}+(k+1)b^{2n}(b^{p}-2)-(k+1)b^{2n-1}(b^{2n+1}-2)\\&={\frac {(4k+3)^{p-2}(b^{p}-2)+1}{4}}+\sum _{i=p-2}^{p-1}(-1)^{i}(k+1)b^{i}(b^{p}-2)\\&={\frac {(4k+3)^{p-2}(b^{p}-2)+1}{4}}+(b^{p}-2)(k+1)\sum _{i=p-2}^{p-1}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\\&={\frac {(4k+3)^{1}(b^{p}-2)+1}{4}}+(b^{p}-2)(k+1)\sum _{i=1}^{p-1}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\\&={\frac {-(b^{p}-2)+1}{4}}+(b^{p}-2)(k+1)\sum _{i=0}^{p-1}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\\&=(b^{p}-2)(k+1)\left(\sum _{i=0}^{2n}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\right)+{\frac {-b^{2n+1}+3}{4}}\\&=(b^{p}-2)(k+1)\left(\sum _{i=0}^{2n}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\right)+{\frac {-4b^{2n+1}+3b^{2n+1}+3}{4}}\\&=(b^{p}-2)(k+1)\left(\sum _{i=0}^{2n}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\right)-b^{p}+{\frac {3b^{2n+1}+3}{4}}\\&=(b^{p}-2)(k+1)\left(\sum _{i=0}^{2n}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\right)-b^{p}+{\frac {3(4k+3)^{p-2}+3}{4}}+3(k+1)\sum _{i=p-2}^{p-1}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\\&=(b^{p}-2)(k+1)\left(\sum _{i=0}^{2n}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\right)-b^{p}+{\frac {3(4k+3)^{1}+3}{4}}+3(k+1)\sum _{i=1}^{p-1}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\\&=(b^{p}-2)(k+1)\left(\sum _{i=0}^{2n}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\right)-b^{p}+{\frac {-3+3}{4}}+3(k+1)\sum _{i=0}^{p-1}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\\&=(b^{p}-2)(k+1)\left(\sum _{i=0}^{2n}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\right)+3(k+1)\left(\sum _{i=0}^{2n}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\right)-b^{p}\\&=(b^{p}-2+3)(k+1)\left(\sum _{i=0}^{2n}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\right)-b^{p}\\&=(b^{p}+1)(k+1)\left(\sum _{i=0}^{2n}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\right)-b^{p}\\&=(b^{p}+1)\left(-1+(k+1)\sum _{i=0}^{2n}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\right)+1\\&=(b^{p}+1)\left(k+(k+1)\sum _{i=1}^{2n}(-1)^{i}b^{i}\right)+1\\&=(b^{p}+1)\left(k+(k+1)\sum _{i=1}^{n}b^{2i}-b^{2i-1}\right)+1\\&=(b^{p}+1)\left(k+(k+1)\sum _{i=1}^{n}(b-1)b^{2i-1}\right)+1\\&=(b^{p}+1)\left(k+\sum _{i=1}^{n}((k+1)b-k-1)b^{2i-1}\right)+1\\&=(b^{p}+1)\left(k+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(4k+3)-k-1)b^{2i-1}\right)+1\\&=(b^{p}+1)\left(k+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}\right)+1\\&=b^{p}\left(k+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}\right)+\left(k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}\right)\end{aligned}}$

The two numbers $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are

$\beta =X_{1}^{2}{\bmod {b}}^{p}=k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}$

$\alpha ={\frac {X_{1}^{2}-\beta }{b^{p}}}=k+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}$

and their sum is

${\begin{aligned}\alpha +\beta &=\left(k+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}\right)+\left(k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}\right)\\&=2k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}((2k)b+2(3k+2))b^{2i-1}\\&=2k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}((2k)b+(6k+4))b^{2i-1}\\&=2k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}((2k)b+(4k+3))b^{2i-1}+(2k+1)b^{2i-1}\\&=2k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}((2k+1)b)b^{2i-1}+(2k+1)b^{2i-1}\\&=2k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(2k+1)b^{2i}+(2k+1)b^{2i-1}\\&=2k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{2n}(2k+1)b^{i}\\&=\sum _{i=0}^{2n}(2k+1)b^{i}\\&=(2k+1)\sum _{i=0}^{2n}b^{i}&=X_{1}\\\end{aligned}}$

Thus, $X_{1}$ is a Kaprekar number.

• $X_{2}={\frac {b^{p}+1}{2}}=X_{1}+1$ is a Kaprekar number for all natural numbers $n$.

Proof

Let

${\begin{aligned}X_{2}&={\frac {b^{2n+1}+1}{2}}\\&={\frac {b^{2n+1}-1}{2}}+1\\&=X_{1}+1\end{aligned}}$

Then,

${\begin{aligned}X_{2}^{2}&=(X_{1}+1)^{2}\\&=X_{1}^{2}+2X_{1}+1\\&=X_{1}^{2}+2X_{1}+1\\&=b^{p}\left(k+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}\right)+\left(k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}\right)+b^{p}-1+1\\&=b^{p}\left(k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}\right)+\left(k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}\right)\end{aligned}}$

The two numbers $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are

$\beta =X_{2}^{2}{\bmod {b}}^{p}=k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}$

$\alpha ={\frac {X_{2}^{2}-\beta }{b^{p}}}=k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}$

and their sum is

${\begin{aligned}\alpha +\beta &=\left(k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}\right)+\left(k+1+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(kb+(3k+2))b^{2i-1}\right)\\&=2k+2+\sum _{i=1}^{n}((2k)b+2(3k+2))b^{2i-1}\\&=2k+2+\sum _{i=1}^{n}((2k)b+(6k+4))b^{2i-1}\\&=2k+2+\sum _{i=1}^{n}((2k)b+(4k+3))b^{2i-1}+(2k+1)b^{2i-1}\\&=2k+2+\sum _{i=1}^{n}((2k+1)b)b^{2i-1}+(2k+1)b^{2i-1}\\&=2k+2+\sum _{i=1}^{n}(2k+1)b^{2i}+(2k+1)b^{2i-1}\\&=2k+2+\sum _{i=1}^{2n}(2k+1)b^{i}\\&=1+\sum _{i=0}^{2n}(2k+1)b^{i}\\&=1+(2k+1)\sum _{i=0}^{2n}b^{i}\\&=1+X_{1}\\&=X_{2}\end{aligned}}$

Thus, $X_{2}$ is a Kaprekar number.

Let $m$, $k$, and $n$ be natural numbers, the number base $b=m^{2}k+m+1$, and the power $p=mn+1$. Then:

 b = m²k + m + 1 and p = mn + m − 1

Let $m$, $k$, and $n$ be natural numbers, the number base $b=m^{2}k+m+1$, and the power $p=mn+m-1$. Then:

• $X_{2}={\frac {mb^{p}+1}{4}}=X_{3}+1$ is a Kaprekar number.

• $X_{2}={\frac {(m-1)b^{p}+1}{m}}=X_{1}+1$ is a Kaprekar number.

 b = m²k + m² − m + 1 and p = mn + m − 1

Let $m$, $k$, and $n$ be natural numbers, the number base $b=m^{2}k+m^{2}-m+1$, and the power $p=mn+m-1$. Then:

• $X_{1}={\frac {b^{p}-1}{m}}=(mk+1)\sum _{i=0}^{p-1}b^{i}$ is a Kaprekar number.
• $X_{2}={\frac {b^{p}+m-1}{m}}=X_{3}+1$ is a Kaprekar number.
