We know that if n be any natural number then there exist a prime which divides n . we shall use this to prove the given result.
Suppose that pı, P2, ..., P, are the only primes congruent to 1 (mod 4). Prove...
7.23 Theorem. Let p be a prime congruent to 3 modulo 4. Let a be a natural number with 1 a< p-1. Then a is a quadrutic residue modulo pif and only ifp-a is a quadratic non-residue modulo p. 7.24 Theorem. Let p be a prime of the form p odd prime. Then p 3 (mod 4). 241 where q is an The next theorem describes the symmetry between primitive roots and quadratic residues for primes arising from odd Sophie...
8. Let p be an odd prime. In this exercise, we prove a famous result that characterizes precisely when -1 has a sqare root 1 mod 4. (You will need Wilson's Theorem for one (mod p). Prove: a 2--1 mod p has a solution if and only if p dircction of the proof.) 8. Let p be an odd prime. In this exercise, we prove a famous result that characterizes precisely when -1 has a sqare root 1 mod 4....
g(p+1)/2 (a) Suppose 9 is a p rimitive root of an odd prime p. Prove that- (mod p) g(p+1)/2 (a) Suppose 9 is a p rimitive root of an odd prime p. Prove that- (mod p)
Suppose n ∈ ℤ. Let p1 , p2, …, pk be k different primes. Prove that n^2 is divisible by p1 p2 … pk if and only if n is divisible by p1, p2, … pk
Let p be an odd prime and a an integer with p not dividing a. Show that a(p-1)/2 is congruent to 1 mod p if and only if a is a square modulo p and -1 otherwise. (hint: think generators)
1.28. Let(P1,P2, . . . , pr} be a set of pri N pip.pr +1. Prove that N is divisible by some prime not in the original set. Use this fact to deduce that there must be infinitely many prime numbers. (This proof of the infini. tude of primes appears in Euclid's Elements. Prime numbers have been studied for thousands of years.)
p-1 mod 4, prove that Σ k ( )-0. Let p be an odd prıme. Suppose that p k=1 p-1 mod 4, prove that Σ k ( )-0. Let p be an odd prıme. Suppose that p k=1
Let p be an odd prime. Prove that if g is a primitive root modulo p, then g^(p-1)/2 ≡ -1 (mod p). Let p be an odd prime. Prove that if g is a primitive root modulo p, then go-1)/2 =-1 (mod p) Hint: Use Lemma 2 from Chapter 28 (If p is prime and d(p 1), then cd-1 Ξ 0 (mod p) has exactly d solutions). Let p be an odd prime. Prove that if g is a primitive...
please prove lemma and theorems. 8.17 is not needed, thank you 8.15 Lemma. Let p be a prime and let a be a natural number not divisible by p. Then there exist integers x and y such that ax y (mod p) with 0xl.lyl 8.16 Theorem. Let p be a prime such that p (mod 4). Thenp is equal to the sum of two squares of natural numbers.
