Plugged into the expression , 107 yields 162259276829213363391578010288127, a Mersenne prime.[2] 107 is itself a safe prime.[3]

It is the fourth Busy beaver number, the maximum number of steps that any Turing machine with 2 symbols and 4 states can make before eventually halting.[4]

It is the number of triangle-free graphs on 7 vertices.[5]
