In recent years, our university in its quest for qualification and democratization of its services has initiated a vast program of innovation.

Indeed, conventional education having demonstrated its limits, particularly in terms of learners’ aptitude and skill, the teaching staff of the University have reoriented the programs by integrating the realities of the job market. Thus, the UMG currently operates with equipped laboratories, amphitheatres, rooms equipped for TDs. We are also one of the rare universities to initiate research programs on thorny questions concerning our country.

It is in this context that our researcher, Mr. Guillaume Hawing of the Center for Research, Delivery and Initiatives (CERPI) of Mahatma Gandhi University, succeeded in implementing a mathematical algorithm, which is a problem of the millennia and which secures various strategic data.

After a primality test validated by peers from Guinea, Tunisia, Morocco and France, this new find by our researcher who comes to end an old research of more than 1000 years, is of great significance. scientist in encryption and decryption, in securing data on the internet, in securing secret information, in securing bank cards and in the fight against cybercrime and piracy.

Today’s world is a global village where everything can be done and undone online. Mahatma Gandhi University, convinced that scientific research is the cornerstone of all development, requests the support of the department in charge of scientific research, to give visibility to this discovery for the happiness of science in Africa in general and Guinea in particular.

Here is a point on our researcher who retraces the stages of his discovery

Riddle of over 1000 years solved by a Guinean researcher from Mahatma Gandhi University

I’m Guillaume Hawing, Lecturer and researcher at the Center for Research, Delivery and Initiatives at Mahatma Gandhi University. I have been researching Number Theory since 2003, I even published in 2014 a deterministic primality test. A primality test that I shared with the peers of the Guinean Mathematical Society, AIMS-Senegal, Tunisia, Morocco and France. This primality test even earned me the title of Keynote Speaker in Morocco during the 5th International Workshop on Code, Crytography and Communication Systems (IWCCCS’2014).

But, I was aware that this primality test was not a big challenge, since there are several other primality tests already discovered by other scholars since the screen of Eratosthenes. I was convinced that the big challenge, the big success was: the distribution of prime numbers, the scheme that organizes the distribution of prime numbers. To the question of knowing: What are the laws which govern the distribution of prime numbers, what is their mode of operation? Do they come at random or according to a well-established order, do they have a logical, periodic, random distribution? The answer to these questions remains an enigma and a mystery today. My model of scientist being Einstein and as Einstein defended the philosophy “It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare them, it is because we do not dare them that they are difficult”. Before therefore approaching this ancestral puzzle subject, I imposed myself the following principle: If all those who preceded me broke their teeth, then I will also break my teeth by seeing things under the same angle than them. In science: “We don’t have to follow in the footsteps of the elders”. So I said to myself, that it is absolutely necessary to refuse to be contaminated by the way of seeing others.

In my new reading of the thing, I understood that all those who failed, failed, because they wanted to be in a house without opening the door. In my research, I understood that except 2 and 5, all prime numbers are ended by: 1, 3, 7 and 9. Still in the same vein, I understood that it takes 5 algorithms : 4 algorithms to organize each of the 4 cases and an algorithm to sort in ascending order. On Thursday 03-02-2016, when I saw that the blow was really successful, I shouted in my living room saying I found, God is great! I found, God is great! My children came to join me in the living room and started shouting with me “Dad found!” “,” Daddy found it! “, Although they didn’t know what it was, what did I find? I explained to my dear wife by talking to her about the principle of 1, 3, 7 and 9 which was hidden behind the organization of prime numbers. The next day, I did the same thing with the founder of the university Mahatma Gandhi, the university where I do my research and where I teach courses in algebra and statistics. On Tuesday 08-02-2016, I explained the same principle 1, 3, 7 and 9 to my students. On Friday 19-02-2016, the founder of Gandhi, the computer programmer Mr. Fodé Idrissa Soumaré and I had gone to see the Minister of Higher Education, Yéro Baldé, with whom we had exchanged and who told us that his support and the support of the department for the project will not be lacking. Because, he said, “Our ambition is to make Guinea the dairy cow for scientific research in the sub-region”

This meeting with the Minister comforted and cheered me up more. I understood that everything had to be done so that the project “The new Einstein must be African”, be real, and that this African be from Guinea Conakry.

Yes, today we hope we are on the right track. Because, knowing the problem linked to the distribution of prime numbers: where the brightest scientific minds have broken their teeth; where others have even killed themselves for failing to unravel the secret of their distribution, where:

Gauss, Prince of Mathematics, said: “There is no way to predict the order of appearance of prime numbers”
Paul Erdos said “We will have to wait at least a million years before we understand the prime numbers”,
Godfrey H. Hardy, saw number theory, that of the former in particular, “the most difficult of all branches of mathematics”
David Hilbert said: “When I wake up after 1000 years of sleep, the first question I would ask is whether the Riemann hypothesis is proven.”
Indeed, Riemann’s hypothesis questions the proportion of the number of prime numbers smaller than a given size. This hypothesis is part of the 7 problems of the millennium of Mathematical Clay whose resolution is priced for 1 million dollars. With this algorithm, I can define with a certain probability of value 1, with a mathematical certainty the number of prime numbers less than a given size. So my algorithm supports the famous hypothesis of the German Bernard Riemann formulated since 1859.

By way of illustration: There are 900 prime numbers less than 7000 which are:

With this same algorithm, we will have: 148,933 prime numbers less than n = 2,000,000; 216,815NP less than n = 3,000,000; 283.146NP less than n = 4,000,000 and 348,512N.P less than n = 5,000,000.

Objective of the find

Organize the distribution of prime numbers without any errors. Strengthen the security of electronic data to minimize information leakage. Strengthen the security of bank cards and data on the internet.

Scope and scientific consequences of the find

Criminals want to break an RSA encryption key. However, the private key can be recalculated provided that you can calculate the decomposition into prime numbers of a large number. To hope to accelerate this decomposition, one seeks to know as much as possible the prime numbers. However, as this scheme makes it possible to simply list the prime numbers, therefore in the hands of cyber criminologists, it is a danger for hacking accounts and for decoding secret information. But, in the hands of businesses and protection firms, this scheme will make it possible to better secure bank accounts, to better secure secret information, etc. The larger the prime numbers that make up a code, the more reliable the code. This simple algorithm with simple tools will better secure bank accounts, information and data on the internet.
