  1. What are primitive roots modulo n? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    The important fact is that the only numbers $n$ that have primitive roots modulo $n$ are of the form $2^\varepsilon p^m$, where $\varepsilon$ is either $0$ or $1$, $p$ is an odd prime, and $m\ge0$

  2. Primitive and modular ideals of $C^ {\ast}$-algebras

    May 7, 2023 · So $\ker\pi$ is primitive but not modular. To find a modular ideal that is not primitive, we need to start with a unital C $^*$ -algebra (so the quotient will be unital) and consider a non …

  3. The primitive $n^ {th}$ roots of unity form basis over $\mathbb {Q ...

    Apr 10, 2024 · We fix the primitive roots of unity of order $7,11,13$, and denote them by $$ \tag {*} \zeta_7,\zeta_ {11},\zeta_ {13}\ . $$ Now we want to take each primitive root of prime order from …

  4. Finding a primitive root of a prime number

    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

  5. Are all natural numbers (except 1 and 2) part of at least one primitive ...

    Nov 5, 2025 · Hence, all odd numbers are included in at least one primitive triplet. Except 1, because I'm not allowing 0 to be a term in a triplet. I can't think of any primitive triplets that have an even number …

  6. What is a primitive polynomial? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    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. …

  7. Equivalent definition of primitive Dirichlet character

    Mar 9, 2021 · A character is non-primitive iff it is of the form $1_ {\gcd (n,k)=1} \psi (n)$ with $\psi$ a character $\bmod m$ coprime with $k$. A character $\bmod p^2$ can be primitive with conductor $p$.

  8. Primitive $6^ {th}$ root of unity - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Dec 2, 2016 · Primitive $6^ {th}$ root of unity Ask Question Asked 9 years, 4 months ago Modified 9 years, 4 months ago

  9. Find primitive root mod 17 - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Apr 29, 2017 · I have to list the quadratic residues of $17$ and find a primitive root. I have calculated that: Quadratic residues $\\text{mod 17}$ are $1,2,4,8,9,13,15,16.$ How am I then meant to use this …

  10. Primitive Roots mod a prime number - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Mar 5, 2018 · Example of searching another primitive root. $3$ is a primitive root modulo $7$ and $\phi (7)=6$. Thus $3^5=5$ modulo $7$ is the only other p.r. because $2,3,4,6$ are not coprime with $6$ …
