Prime numbers have always fascinated mankind. For mathematicians, they are a kind of “black sheep” of the family of integers by their constant refusal to let themselves to be disciplined, ordered and understood. However, we have at hand a powerful tool, insufficiently investigated yet, which can help us in understanding them: Fermat pseudoprimes. It was a night of Easter, many years ago, when I rediscovered Fermat’s "little" theorem. Excited, I found the first few Fermat absolute pseudoprimes (561, 1105, 1729, 2465, 2821, 6601, 8911…) before I found out that these numbers are already known. Since then, the passion for study these numbers constantly accompanied me.
