Prime Number Factorizations
Result
Suppose $n \in \N $ and $n > 1$.
Then there exists a factorization $(\pi _1,
\dots , \pi _p)$ of $n$ where $\pi _i$ is prime
for $i = 1, \dots , p$.
In other words,
\[
n = \pi _1\pi _2\cdots\pi _p
\]
This result is known as the
fundamental theorem of
arithmetic, or the prime
factorization theorem.
Future editions will include the proof.
