    Elementary number theory includes topics of number theory commonly taught at the primary and secondary school level, or in college courses on introductory number theory.

  3. Modular multiplicative inverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_multiplicative_inverse

    Use the extended Euclidean algorithm to compute k −1, the modular multiplicative inverse of k mod 2 w, where w is the number of bits in a word. This inverse will exist since the numbers are odd and the modulus has no odd factors. For each number in the list, multiply it by k −1 and take the least significant word of the result.

  4. Elementary Number Theory, Group Theory and Ramanujan Graphs

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_Number_Theory...

    Its authors have divided Elementary Number Theory, Group Theory and Ramanujan Graphs into four chapters. The first of these provides background in graph theory, including material on the girth of graphs (the length of the shortest cycle), on graph coloring, and on the use of the probabilistic method to prove the existence of graphs for which both the girth and the number of colors needed are ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_number

    An elementary number is one formalization of the concept of a closed-form number. The elementary numbers form an algebraically closed field containing the roots of arbitrary expressions using field operations, exponentiation, and logarithms. The set of the elementary numbers is subdivided into the explicit elementary numbers and the implicit ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting-the-exponent_lemma

    In elementary number theory, the lifting-the-exponent lemma (LTE lemma) provides several formulas for computing the p-adic valuation of special forms of integers. The lemma is named as such because it describes the steps necessary to "lift" the exponent of p {\displaystyle p} in such expressions.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_theory

    Number theory is a branch of pure mathematics devoted primarily to the study of the integers and arithmetic functions.German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss (1777–1855) said, "Mathematics is the queen of the sciences—and number theory is the queen of mathematics."

  9. Bézout's identity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bézout's_identity

    Many other theorems in elementary number theory, such as Euclid's lemma or the Chinese remainder theorem, result from Bézout's identity. A Bézout domain is an integral domain in which Bézout's identity holds. In particular, Bézout's identity holds in principal ideal domains. Every theorem that results from Bézout's identity is thus true in ...
