In mathematics

71 is the 20th prime number. Because both rearrangements of its digits (17 and 71) are prime numbers, 71 is an emirp and more generally a permutable prime.{{cite journal | last = Baker | first = Alan | author-link = Alan Baker (philosopher) | date = January 2017 | doi = 10.1080/00048402.2016.1262881 | issue = 4 | journal = Australasian Journal of Philosophy | pages = 779–793 | title = Mathematical spandrels | volume = 95| s2cid = 218623812 }}

71 is a centered heptagonal number.

It is a regular prime, a Ramanujan prime, a Higgs prime, and a good prime.

It is a Pillai prime, since 9!+1 is divisible by 71, but 71 is not one more than a multiple of 9. It is part of the last known pair (71, 7) of Brown numbers, since 71^{2}=7!+1.{{cite journal | last1 = Berndt | first1 = Bruce C. | last2 = Galway | first2 = William F. | doi = 10.1023/A:1009873805276 | issue = 1 | journal = Ramanujan Journal | mr = 1754629 | pages = 41–42 | title = On the Brocard–Ramanujan Diophantine equation n!+1=m^2 | volume = 4 | year = 2000| s2cid = 119711158

71 is the smallest of thirty-one discriminants of imaginary quadratic fields with class number of 7, negated (see also Heegner numbers).

71 is the largest number which occurs as a prime factor of an order of a sporadic simple group, the largest (15th) supersingular prime.{{cite journal | last1 = Duncan | first1 = John F.
