What properties do prime numbers exhibit which can be used in proofs to define them?
Like rational numbers have a unique property that they can be expressed as a quotient of a/b.
Even numbers have a unique property of divisibility by 2 and thus they can be expressed as 2x.
Similarly are there any unique properties for prime numbers?
