A Fermat pseudoprime to a base , written psp(), is a composite number  such that , i.e., it satisfies Fermat's little theorem. Sometimes the requirement that  must be odd is added (Pomerance et al. 1980) which, for example would exclude 4 from being considered a psp(5).

psp(2)s are called Poulet numbers or, less commonly, Sarrus numbers or Fermatians (Shanks 1993). The following table gives the first few Fermat pseudoprimes to some small bases .

	OEIS	-Fermat pseudoprimes
2	A001567	341, 561, 645, 1105, 1387, 1729, 1905, ...
3	A005935	91, 121, 286, 671, 703, 949, 1105, 1541, 1729, ...
4	A020136	15, 85, 91, 341, 435, 451, 561, 645, 703, ...
5	A005936	4, 124, 217, 561, 781, 1541, 1729, 1891, ...

If base 3 is used in addition to base 2 to weed out potential composite numbers, only 4709 composite numbers remain . Adding base 5 leaves 2552, and base 7 leaves only 1770 composite numbers.
