Recently i realized, that primes are similar to "elementary particles" of arithmetic i.e. other numbers can be constructed from primes but primes cannot be constructed from other numbers.
In that regard, making a note of a paper i came across about how primes are related to the physical world

- on Particles and Primes: https://arxiv.org/abs/1608.07175 . This paper is quite heavy but a good opportunity to introduce myself to the terminology outlined therein such as
- associative normed division algebras C and H (ie C (the complex numbers); H (the quaternions).)
