Examples

Proposition 1 If there exists a primitive root modulo \(n\), then there are exactly \(\varphi(\varphi(n))\) primitive roots modulo \(n\).

Theorem 1 (Existence of primitive roots) Primitive roots modulo \(n\) exists if and only if \(n = 2, 4, p^k, 2p^k\) for an odd prime \(p\) and a positive integer \(k\).

Proof (Proof of Proposition 1). We note that the primitive roots modulo \(n\) is exactly the generators of the group of units modulo \(n\). By the hypothesis, the group of units modulo \(n\) is cyclic, thus having \(\varphi(\varphi(n))\) generators.

Remark

Remark. Group theory greatly simplifies the proof of the theorem.

Exercise 1 Prove that the quadratic residues modulo \(p\) form a subgroup of the group of units modulo \(p\) of index \(2\).

Solution 1 (Solution to Exercise 1). Use the fact that the group of units modulo \(p\) is cyclic.
