Jan 6, 2019 · The so-called primitive function f f, which was the starting point and so came first, the root meaning of primitive (Lat. primus, first), is what we might call an antiderivative or integral of p p. …

Jan 3, 2015 · How would you find a primitive root of a prime number such as 761? How do you pick the primitive roots to test? Randomly? Thanks

9 What is a primitive polynomial? I was looking into some random number generation algorithms and 'primitive polynomial' came up a sufficient number of times that I decided to look into it in more detail. …

Jul 31, 2023 · PrimitiveIdentification requires the group to be a primitive group of permutations, not just a group that can be primitive in some action. You will need to convert to a permutation group, most …

Jul 23, 2018 · 6 So I encountered this proof on a Number Theory book, I will link the pdf at the end of the post (proof at page 96), it says: " Every prime has a primitive root, proof: Let p be a prime and let m …

Mar 23, 2019 · There are indeed ϕ(ϕ(31)) = 8 ϕ (ϕ (31)) = 8 primitive roots modulo 31 31 and you can find them as described here: Finding a primitive root of a prime number For example, 3k ≡ 1 mod 31 …

Jan 21, 2012 · Show that the primitive n-th roots of unity have the form e2kiπ/n e 2 k i π / n for k, n k, n coprime for 0 ≤ k ≤ n 0 ≤ k ≤ n. Since all primitive n-th roots of unity are n-th roots of unity by …

Jun 29, 2016 · I am reading some introductory texts about Selberg's trace formula for hyperbolic surfaces and I have encountered the concept of "primitive element" $\\gamma$ in a hyperbolic …

In general, the primitive n n th roots of unity in the n n th cyclotomic field form a normal basis over Q Q if and only if n n is squarefree. A little bit of research didn't turn up any results, except apparently the …

Jul 14, 2014 · It can be proven that a primitive root modulo $n$ exists if and only if $$n \in \ { 1,2 , 4, p^k, 2 p^k \}$$ with $p$ odd prime. For each $n$ of this form there are exactly $\phi (n)$ primitive roots.
