Abstract(in English) The Miller-Rabin probabilistic primality test is useful for finding large primes necessary for public key cryptography. For an odd composite n, an integer b in (1, n-1) is called a witness of n if b is coprime to n and n is a strong pseudoprime to the base b. It is known that at least three fourths of integers in (1, n-1) are witnesses of n. We will present a following conjecture on the upper bound of the minimum witness of n: Let k be the least integer greater than or equal to log n/log 4. Let PRIME(k) be the set of the smallest k primes. If n is composite, then there exists a witness of n in the set PRIME(k).
