The conjecture Conjecture 1 is true. With p = 2k+1 then 2^k mod (2k+1) == 2k. So 2k+1 | 2k-2^k . Prime numbers 2k+1 == +-3 (mod 8) are the prime numbers such that 2k+1 | 2^k+1 (Comments A007520). A reflection across the x-axis and +1 translation across the y-axis of the graph (2k-2^k) / (2k+1) gives the graph (2^k+1) / (2k+1). So the k values of both 2k+1 | 2k-2^k and 2k+1 | 2^k+1 are identical. - Hilko Koning, Feb 04 2022

If Conjecture 1: if p is a prime congruent to {3,5} mod 8 then 2^((p-1)/2) mod p = p-1.
