Let p be a prime. Consider the sequence 11,22,3, 44,55 modulo p. Prove that the resulting sequence is periodic with smallest period p(p - 1). (This means that p(p - 1) is the least among all positive integers l with the property that whenever n = m (mod l), we have n" = m" (mod p).)

27. (a) Let m and n be integers > 1 which are relatively prime. Show that the map f : Z → Z/mZ × Z/nZ whith f(x) = (x + mZ, x + nZ) is surjective (b) Prove the Chinese Remainder Theorem: If m and n are relatively prime integers > 1 and if a and b are any integers, then there exists a E Z such that b(mod n). a(mod m) and a a Hint: (a)]

Please answer both part. Thanks.
In the power method, let rk d(x(k+1))/ф(z(k)). We know that limk-oo rk Show that the relative errors obey 1- Ai where the numbers ck form a convergent (and hence bounded) sequence. (Continuation) Show that rk +1-λι-(c+&J(rk-A) where Icl < 1 and limn-o0 Sk 0, so that Aitken acceleration is applicable.

Let J be the ring of integers, p a prime number, and () the ideal of J consisting of all multiples of p. Prove (a) J@) is isomorphic to Jp, the ring of integers mod p. (b) Using Theorem 3.5.1 and part (a) of this problem, that J, is a field.
Let k and a be two positive integers, such that ak-1 = 1(mod k) and gcd(k, a) = 1. Is k prime or composite? If so why and explain all the steps. Thanks
2. Let p be an odd prime. We saw last week that the problem of counting solutions to the congruence (mod p) is only interesting when p has the form 4k1. For the rest of this problem let p 4k+1.
