| Abstract: This will be a survey of certain easy-to-understand problems in elementary number theory about which "not enough" is known. We will start with a discussion of the infinitude of primes, then discuss the ancient concept of perfect numbers (and related notions), and then branch off into other realms as the spirit of Paul Erd\H{o}s leads us. |
