May 16, 2023 · 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

I'm trying to understand what primitive roots are for a given $\bmod\ n$. Wolfram's definition is as follows: A primitive root of a prime $p$ is an integer $g$ such ...

Jan 6, 2019 · If I had to guess, I would say that calling the antiderivative as primitive is of French origin. Is one term more popular than the other?

Aug 10, 2015 · What do you call "primitive polynomial over a finite field" to, please? Could it be you actually meant "irreducible"?

Jul 23, 2018 · 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 be a

Nov 12, 2016 · What would be the derivative of square roots? For example if I have $2 \\sqrt{x}$ or $\\sqrt{x}$. I'm unsure how to find the derivative of these and include them especially in something …

Mar 7, 2018 · Let $p$ be an odd prime, let $g$ be a primitive root of $p$. Prove $-g$ is a primitive root of $p$ if and only if $$p\\equiv1\\pmod{4}$$ Hint: express $-g$ as $g^{k ...

I think you may be hoping for more of an insight, but "primitive notion" simply means a syntactic element that appears in the Axioms with no definition in terms of simpler elements. We have to start …

Dec 8, 2013 · This is hard. To see how hard,have a look at this paper: Finding primitive elements in finite fields of small characteristic.

They are not equivalent. The standard example is the Ackermann function, which is (total) recursive, but not primitive recursive. But if you are a programmer, here's another way to think of the difference …
