Let n and k be arbitrary positive integers. We will tend to be concerned with small k and with n which are several times k!. I stated two conditions on (n, k) in a previous paper; in this paper I restate them and further explore them. In particular, it is proven that if n is the least number satisfying Condition 1 for a certain k, then the least number for k + l must be at least 2n + l. Condition 1 and Condition 2 are rephrased graph-theoretically. A heuristic explanation for why the quadratic. residues tend to satisfy Condition …
