How fast can we multiply two integers, each of which has ten million bits? By using ideas that developed directly (though not at all trivially) from the ones that we have been discussing, Schönhage and Strassen found the fastest known method for doing such large-scale multiplications of integers. The method relies heavily on the FFT, which may not be too surprising since an integer \( n \) is given in terms of its bits \( b_0, b_1, \ldots, b_m \) by the relation \[ n = \sum_{i=0}^{m} b_i 2^i. \] However, the sum in (2.5) is seen at once to be the value of a certain polynomial at \( z = 2 \). Hence in asking for the bits of the product of two such integers we are asking for something very similar to the coefficients of the product of two polynomials, and indeed the fastest known algorithms for this problem depend upon the Fast Fourier Transform. ### Exercises for section 2.6 1. Let \( \omega \) be an \( n \)-th root of unity, and let \( k \) be a fixed integer. Evaluate \[ 1 + \omega^k + \omega^{2k} + \cdots + \omega^{(n-1)k}. \] 2. Verify that the relations (2.6.3) and (2.6.4) indeed are inverses of each other. 3. Let \( f = \sum_{j=0}^{n-1} a_j \omega^j \). Show that \[ \frac{1}{n} \sum_{n=1}^{\omega} |f(\omega)|^2 = |a_0|^2 + \cdots + |a_{n-1}|^2. \] 4. The values of a certain cubic polynomial at \( i, -1, -i \) are \( 1, 2, 3, 4 \), respectively. Find its value at 2. 5. Write a program that will do the FFT in the case where the number of data points is a power of 2. Organize your program so as to minimize additional array storage beyond the input and output arrays. 6. Prove that a polynomial of degree \( n \) is uniquely determined by its values at \( n + 1 \) distinct points. ## 2.7 A review Here is a quick review of the algorithms that we studied in this chapter. Sorting is an easy computational problem. The most obvious way to sort an array elements takes time \( \Theta(n^2) \). We discussed a recursive algorithm that sorts in an average time of \( \Theta(n \log n) \). Finding a maximum independent set in a graph is a hard computational problem. The most obvious way to do it might take time \( \Omega(2^{|V|}) \) if the graph \( G \) has \( V \) vertices. We discussed a recursive method that runs in time \( O(1.39^n) \). The best known methods run in time \( O(2^{|V|/3}) \). Finding out if a graph is \( k \)-colorable is a hard computational problem. The most obvious way to do it takes time \( O(k^n) \), if \( G \) has \( n \) vertices. We also discussed methods that run in time \( O(1.5^n) \) if \( G \) has \( m \) edges. One recently developed method *runs in time* \( O(1.5^n) \). We will see in section 5.7 that this problem can be done in an average time that is \( O(1) \) for fixed \( k \). Multiplying two matrices is an easy computational problem. The most obvious way to do it takes time \( O(n^3) \) if the matrices are \( n \times n \). We discussed a recursive method that runs in time \( O(n^{2.81}) \). A recent method **runs in time \( O(n^{2.5}) \)** for some \( \epsilon < 2.5 \). - E.

By a **pseudoprimality test** we mean a test that is applied to a pair \( (n, b) \) of integers, and that has the following characteristics: - **(a)** The possible outcomes of the test are ‘\( n \) is composite’ or ‘inconclusive.’ - **(b)** If the test reports ‘\( n \) is composite’ then \( n \) is composite. - **(c)** The test runs in a time that is polynomial in \( \log n \). If the test result is ‘inconclusive’ then we say that \( n \) is pseudoprime to the base \( b \) (which means that \( b \) is far acting like a prime number, as far as we can tell). The outcome of the test of the primality of \( n \) depends on the base \( b \) that is chosen. In a good pseudoprimality test there will be many bases \( b \) that will give the correct answer. More precisely, a good pseudoprimality test will, with high probability (i.e., for a large number of choices of the base \( b \)) declare that a composite \( n \) is composite. In more detail, we will say that a pseudoprimality test is ‘good’ if there is a fixed positive number \( t \) such that every composite integer \( n \) is declared to be composite for at least \( t \) choices of the base \( b \) in the interval \( [1, S] \). Of course, given an integer \( n \), it is silly to say that ‘there is a high probability that \( n \) is prime’ or it isn’t, and we should not blame our ignorance on its itself. Nonetheless, the abuse of language is sufficiently appealing that we will define the problem away: we will say that a given integer \( n \) is very probably prime if we have subjected it to a good pseudoprimality test, with a large number of different bases \( b \), and have found that it is pseudoprime to all of those bases. Here are four examples of pseudoprimality tests, only one of which is ‘good.’ #### Test 1 Given \( n \), Output \( n \) is composite if \( b \) divides \( n \), else ‘inconclusive.’ This isn’t the good one. If \( n \) is composite, the probability that it will be so declared is the probability that we happen to have found a \( b \) that divides \( n \), where \( b \) is not \( 1 \) or \( n \). The probability of this event, if \( b \) is chosen uniformly at random from \( [1, n] \) is \[ p_1 = \frac{d(n) - 2}{n} \] where \( d(n) \) is the number of divisors of \( n \). Certainly \( p_1 \) is not bounded from below by a positive constant \( t \) if \( n \) is composite. #################### File: Algorithms%20and%20Complexity%20-%20Herbert%20S.%20Wilf%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 96 Context: # Chapter 4: Algorithms in the Theory of Numbers of the group of units.

Output \( n \) is composite if \( \gcd(b, n) \neq 1 \), else output ‘inconclusive.’ This one is a little better, but not yet good. If it is composite, the number of bases \( b \leq k \) for which Test 2 will produce the result ‘composite’ is \( n - \phi(n) \), where \(\phi\) is the Euler totient function, of (4.1.5). This number of useful bases will be large if \( n \) has some small prime factors, but in that case it’s easy to find out that \( n \) is composite by other methods. If \( n \) has only a few large prime factors, say if \( n = p^k \), then the proportion of useful bases is very small, and we have the same kind of inefficiency as in Test 1 above. Now we can state the third pseudorandomity test. ## Test 3 Given \( n \). (If \( b \) and \( n \) are not relatively prime or) if \( n \equiv 1 \,(\text{mod}\, n) \) then output \( n \) is composite; else output ‘inconclusive.’ Regrettably, the test is still not ‘good,’ but it’s a lot better than its predecessors. To cite an extreme case of its un-goodness, there exist composite numbers \( n \), called Carmichael numbers, with the property that the pair \( (b, n) \) produces the output ‘inconclusive’ for every integer \( b \) that is relatively prime to \( n \). An example of such a number is \( n = 1729 \), which is composite (\( 1729 = 17 \cdot 101 \)), but for which Test 3 gives the result ‘inconclusive’ on every integer \( b < 1729 \) that is relatively prime to \( 1729 \) (i.e., that is not divisible by \( 7 \) or \( 13 \) or \( 19 \)). Despite such misbehavior, the test usually seems to perform quite well. When \( n = 169 \) (a difficult integer for Tests 1 and 2) it turns out that there are \( 158 \) different \( b \in [1, 168] \) that produce the ‘composite’ outcome from Test 3, namely every such \( b \) except for \( 19, 22, 23, 70, 80, 89, 96, 147, 150, 168 \). Finally, we will describe a good pseudorandomity test. The familial resemblance to Test 3 will be apparent. ## Test 4 (the strong pseudorandomity test) Given \( (n, k) \). Let \( n = 1 \cdot 2^m \), where \( m \) is an odd integer. If either - (a) \( b^m \equiv 1 \,(\text{mod}\, n) \) or - (b) there is an integer \( i \in [0, q - 1] \) such that \( b^{n^2} \equiv -1 \,(\text{mod}\, n) \) then return ‘inconclusive’; else return ‘is composite.’ First we validate the test by proving the Proposition. ### Proposition If the test returns the message \( n \) is composite, then \( n \) is composite. **Proof:** Suppose not. Then \( n \) is an odd prime. We claim that \[ b^{m^2} \equiv 1 \,(\text{mod}\, n) \] for all \( i = q, q - 1, \ldots, 0 \). If so then the case \( i = 0 \) will contradict the outcome of the test, and thereby complete the proof. To establish the claim, it is clearly true when \( i = q \) by Fermat’s theorem. If true for \( i \), then it is true for \( i - 1 \), because \[ (b^{m^{i-1}})^2 \equiv b^{m^2} \equiv 1 \,(\text{mod}\, n) \] implies that the quantity being squared is \( +1 \) or \( -1 \). Since \( n \) is an odd prime, by corollary 4.5.3 \( U_n \) is cyclic, and so the equation \( x^2 \equiv 1 \,(\text{mod}\, n) \) has only the solutions \( x \equiv \pm 1 \). But \( -1 \) is ruled out by the outcome of the test, and the proof of the claim is complete. What is the computational complexity of the test? Consider first the computational problem of raising a number to a power. We can calculate, for example, \( b^2, b^4, b^8, \ldots \), by squaring, and reducing modulus immediately after each squaring operation, rather than waiting until the final exponent is reached. Then we use the binary expansion of the exponent to tell us which of these powers of \( b \) we should multiply together in order to compute \( b^n \). For instance, \[ b^{37} = b^{32} \cdot b^{4} \cdot b^{1}. \] Image Analysis: ## Image Analysis ### Image Localization and Attribution: - **Image 1**: The only image present on the page. ### Object Detection and Classification: - **Image 1**: - Objects Detected: - Multiple pieces of text. - Mathematical formulas and expressions. ### Scene and Activity Analysis: - **Image 1**: - Scene: Academic or scientific publication page, specifically focusing on pseudoprimality tests in number theory. - Activities: Detailed explanation of various pseudoprimality tests, including complete descriptions and examples. ### Text Analysis: - **Image 1**: - Text Extracted: ``` 4.6 Pseudoprimality tests Test 2.

Let n =1 - 2^q, where m is an old integer. If either (a) b^m ≠ 1 (modn) or (b) there is an integer i in [0, q- 1] such that b^mi ≠ -1 (modn) then return ‘inconclusive’ else return ‘n is composite.’ First we validate the test by proving the Proposition.

If so then the case i = 0 will contradict the outcome of the test, and thereby complete the proof. To establish the claim, it is clearly true when i = q by Fermat’s theorem.

The order of \( x \) is equal to the lcm of the orders of the elements of the \( s \)-tuple. For each \( i = 1, \ldots, s \), the order of the \( i \)-th of those elements is a divisor of \( \varphi_i \), and therefore the order of \( x \) divides the item shown above. ## Lemma 4.7.2 Let \( n > 1 \) be odd. For each element \( x \in U_n \) (where \( U(n) = \{1, u_1, \ldots, u_{s-1}\} \)), denote the cyclic group that it generates. Let \( B \) be the set of all elements of \( U_n \) for which \( C(u) \) either contains \(-1\) or odd order (i.e., \( \text{ord}(x) \) odd). If \( B \) generates the full group \( U_n \), then \( n \) is prime power. **Proof:** Let \( e^* = 2^m \), where \( m \) is odd and \( e^* \) as shown in lemma 4.7.1. Then there is a \( j \) such that \( \varphi(n) \) is divisible by \( 2^j \). Now if \( n \) is a prime power, we are finished. So we can suppose that \( r \) is divisible by more than one prime number. Since \( \varphi(n) \) is an even number for all \( r > 2 \) (proof?), the number \( e \) is even. Hence \( t > 0 \) and we can define a mapping \( \psi \) of the group \( U_r \) to itself by \[ \psi(x) = x^{2^m} \quad (x \in U_n) \] (note that \( \psi(x) \) is its own inverse). This is in fact a group homomorphism. For all \( y \in U_n \): \( \psi(y) = \psi(x)\psi(y). Let \( B \) be as in the statement of lemma 4.7.2. For each \( x \in B \), \( \psi(x) \) is in \( B \) and \[ \psi^2(x) = \psi(x). \] Since \( \psi(y) \) is an element of \( C(x) \) whose square is \( 1 \), \( \psi(y) \) has order 1 or 2. Hence if \( \psi(e) \neq 1 \), it is of order 2. If the cyclic group \( C(y) \) is of odd order and contains \(-1\), then it can contain no other element of order 2, so \( \psi(e) = -1 \) in this case. Hence for every \( x \in B \), \( \psi(x) = 1 \). Suppose \( B \) generates the full group \( U_n \). Then not only for every \( x \in B \) but for every \( z \in U_n \) it must be that \( \psi(z) = 1 \). Suppose \( n \) is not a prime power. Then \( s > 1 \) in the factorization (4.5.2) of \( U_n \). Consider the element \( v \) in \( U_n \), which, when written out as an \( s \)-tuple according to that factorization, is of the form \[ v = (1, 1, \ldots, 1, y, 1, \ldots, 1) \] where the \( y \) is in the \( j \)-th component, \( y \in U_n \) (recall that \( s \) is described above, in the second sentence of this proof). We can suppose \( y \) to be an element of order exactly \( 2 \) in \( U_n \), since \( U_n \) is cyclic. Consider \( \psi(y) \). Clearly \( \psi(y) \) is not \( 1 \) or otherwise the order of \( y \), namely \( 2 \), would divide \( 2^{m-1} \), which is impossible because \( m \) is odd. Also, \( \psi(y) \) is not \(-1\), because the element \(-1\) of \( U_n \) is represented uniquely by the \( s \)-tuple all of whose entries are \( -1 \). Thus \( y \) is neither \( 1 \) nor \(-1\), which contradicts the italicized assertion above. Hence \( s = 1 \) and \( n \) is a prime power, completing the proof. We can now prove the main result of Solomon, Strassen and Rabin, which asserts that Test 4 is good. ## Theorem 4.7.1 Let \( B' \) be the set of integers \( m \) such that \( \gcd(m, n) \) returns 'inconclusive' in Test 4. (a) If \( B' \) generates \( U_n \), then \( n \) is prime. (b) If \( B' \) consists of at most half of the integers in \( [1, n-1] \). **Proof:** Suppose \( B' \) and let \( m \) be the odd part of \( n - 1 \). Then either \( m \equiv 1 \mod 2 \) or \( m \equiv -1 \mod 2 \) for some \( i \in [1, n-1] \). In the former case the cyclic subgroup \( C(y) \) has odd order, since \( m \) is odd, and in the latter case \( C(y) \) contains \(-1\).

The order of each element of Unis a divisor of e' = lem{φ(si)}, i = 1, s}. Proof: From the product representation (4.5.3) of Un we find that an element x of Un can be regarded as an s-tuple of elements from the cyclic groups Ui (i= 1, s). The order of x is equal to the lemt of the orders of the elements of the s-tuple. But for each i= 1,.

For each element U,, let C(Un)= {1, w, wa2, ...,ws-1) denote the cyclic group that it generates. Let B be the set of all elements x of Un for which C(Un) either contains –1 or has odd order (ie odd). If B generates the full group Un then n is a prime power. Proof: Let e' = 2l'm, where m is odd and e is as shown in lemma 4.7.1. Then there is a j such that φ(n1) is divisible by2l'. Now if n is a prime power, we are finished. So we can suppose that x is divisible by more than one prime number. Since φ(n1) is an even number for all n > 2 (proof?), the number e' is even. Hence t > 0 and we can define a mapping φ½ of the group Un to itself by φ(z) = zxl'÷m. (note that φ(z) is its own inverse).

The order of each element of \( U_n \) is a divisor of \( e' = \text{lcm}(\varphi_i)_{i=1}^s \). **Proof:** From the product representation (4.5.3) of \( U_n \), we find that an element \( x \in U_n \) can be regarded as an \( s \)-tuple of elements from the cyclic groups \( U_{n_i} \) (where \( i = 1, \ldots, s \)). The order of \( x \) is equal to the lcm of the orders of the elements of this \( s \)-tuple. For each \( i = 1, \ldots, s \), the order of the \( i \)-th element is a divisor of \( \varphi_i \), and therefore the order of \( x \) divides the item shown above. Lemma 4.7.2. Let \( n > 1 \) be odd. For each element \( x \in U_n \), let \( C(x) = \{ 1, x, \ldots, x^{e-1} \} \) denote the cyclic group that it generates. Let \( B \) be the set of all elements of \( U_n \) for which \( C(x) \) either contains \(-1\) or odd order (i.e., \( \text{ord}(x) \) odd). If \( B \) generates the full group \( U_n \), then \( n \) is a prime power. **Proof:** Let \( e^* = 2^m \), where \( m \) is odd and \( e^* \) as in lemma 4.7.1. Then there is a \( j \) such that \( \varphi(n) \) is divisible by \( 2^j \). Now if \( n \) is a prime power, we are finished. So we can suppose that \( n \) is divisible by more than one prime number. Since \( \varphi(n) \) is an even number for all \( n > 2 \) (proof?), the number \( e \) is even. Hence \( t > 0 \) and we can define a mapping \( \psi \) of the group \( U_n \) to itself by \[ \psi(x) = x^{2^{m-1}} \quad (x \in U_n) \] (note that \( \psi(x) \) is its own inverse). For all \( y \in U_k \): \( \psi(y) = \psi(y)\psi(y). Let \( B \) be as in the statement of lemma 4.7.2. For each \( x \in B \), \( \psi(x) \) is in \( B \) and \[ \psi^2(x) = \psi(x) = 1. \] Since \( \psi(y) \) is an element of \( C(y) \) whose square is \( 1 \), \( \psi(y) \) has order 1 or 2. Hence if \( \psi(y) \neq 1 \), it is of order 2. If the cyclic group \( C(y) \) is of odd order then it contains \( -1 \). It then can contain no other element of order 2, so \( \psi(y) = -1 \) in this case. Hence for every \( x \in B, \psi(x) = 1 \). Suppose \( B \) generates the full group \( U_n \). Then not only for every \( x \in B \) but for every \( z \in U_n \) it is true that \( \psi(z) = 1 \). Suppose \( n \) is not a prime power. Then \( s > 1 \) in the factorization (4.5.2) of \( U_n \). Consider the element \( v \) in \( U_n \), which we write out as an \( s \)-tuple according to that factorization, is of the form \[ v = (1, 1, \ldots, 1, y, 1, \ldots, 1) \] where the \( y \) is in the \( j \)-th component, \( y \in U_n \) (recall that \( s \) is described above, in the second sentence of this proof). We can suppose \( y \) to be an element of order exactly \( 2 \) in \( U_n \) since \( U_n \) is cyclic. Consider \( \psi(y) \). Clearly \( \psi(y) \) is not \( 1 \), for otherwise the order of \( y \), namely \( 2^{m} \), would divide \( 2^{m-1} \), which is impossible because \( m \) is odd. Also, \( \psi(y) \) is not \(-1\) because the element \(-1\) of \( U_n \) is represented uniquely by the \( s \)-tuple of all whose entries are \( 1 \). Thus \( y \) is neither \( 1 \) nor \(-1\), which contradicts the italicized assertion above. Hence \( s > 1 \) and \( n \) is a prime power, completing the proof. We can now prove the main result of Solovay, Strassen, and Rabin, which asserts that Test 4 is good. Theorem 4.7.1. Let \( B' \) be the set of integers \( m \) such that \( \gcd(m, n) \) returns ‘inconclusive’ in Test 4. (a) If \( B' \) generates \( U_n \), then \( n \) is prime. (b) If \( B' \) consists of at most half of the integers in \( [1, n - 1] \). **Proof:** Suppose \( e \in B' \) and let \( m \) be the odd part of \( n - 1 \). Then either \( e^m \equiv 1 \mod n - 1 \) for some \( i \in [0, n - 1] \). In the former case the cyclic subgroup \( C(y) \) has odd order, since \( m \) is odd, and in the latter case \( C(y) \) contains \(-1\). Image Analysis: ### Analysis of the Visual Content #### 1.

The order of \( x \) is equal to the lcm of the orders of the elements of the \( s \)-tuple. For each \( i = 1, \ldots, s \), the order of the \( i \)-th element is a divisor of \( \phi(i) \), and therefore the order of \( x \) divides the item shown above. ## Lemma 4.7.2 Let \( n > 1 \) be odd. For each element of \( U_n \), let \( C(x) = \{ 1, x, \ldots, x^{e-1} \} \) denote the cyclic group that it generates. Let \( B \) be the set of all elements of \( U_n \) for which \( C(y) \) either contains \(-1\) or odd order (i.e., \( \text{ord}(y) \) odd). If \( B \) generates the full group \( U_n \), then \( n \) is a prime power. **Proof:** Let \( e' = 2^m \), where \( m \) is odd and \( e' \) is as shown in lemma 4.7.1. Then there is a \( j \) such that \( \phi(n) \) is divisible by \( 2^j \). Now if \( n \) is a prime power, we are finished. So we can suppose that \( n \) is divisible by more than one prime number. Since \( \phi(n) \) is an even number for all \( n > 2 \) (proof?), the number \( e' \) is even. Hence \( t > 0 \) and we can define a mapping \( \psi \) of the group \( U_n \) to itself by \[ \psi(x) = x^{2^{m-1}} \quad (x \in U_n) \] (note that \( \psi \) is its own inverse). This is in fact a group homomorphism. For each \( x \in U_k \): \( \psi(xy) = \psi(x)\psi(y) \). Let \( B \) be as in the statement of lemma 4.7.2. For each \( x \in B \), \( \psi(x) \in B \) and \[ \psi^2(x) = \psi(x). \] Since \( \psi(y) \) is an element of \( C(y) \) whose square is 1, \( \psi(y) \) has order 1 or 2. Hence if \( \psi(y) \neq 1 \), it is of order 2. If the cyclic group \( C(y) \) is of odd order then it contains \(-1\). It then can contain no other element of order 2, so \( \psi(y) = -1 \) in this case. Hence for every \( x \in B \), \( \psi(x) = 1 \). Suppose \( B \) generates the full group \( U_n \). Then not only for every \( x \in B \) but for every \( z \in U_n \) is true that \( \psi(z) = 1 \). Suppose \( n \) is not a prime power. Then \( s > 1 \) in the factorization (4.5.2) of \( U_n \). Consider the element \( v \in U_n \), which, when written out as an \( s \)-tuple according to that factorization, is of the form \[ v = (1, 1, \ldots, 1, y, 1, \ldots, 1) \] where the \( y \) is in the \( j \)-th component, \( y \in U_k \) (recall that \( j \) is described above, in the second sentence of this proof). We can suppose \( y \) to be an element of order exactly \( 2 \) in \( U_n \), since \( U_k \) is cyclic. Consider \( \psi(y) \). Clearly \( \psi(y) \) is not 1, for otherwise the order of \( y \), namely \( 2^{1} \), would divide \( 2^{m-1} \), which is impossible because \( m \) is odd. Also, \( \psi(y) \) is not \(-1\), because the element \(-1\) of \( U_n \) is represented uniquely by the \( s \)-tuple all of whose entries are \(-1\). Thus \( y \) is neither 1 nor \(-1\), which contradicts the italicized assertion above. Hence \( s = 1 \) and \( n \) is a prime power, completing the proof. Now we can prove the main result of Solovay, Strassen and Rabin, which asserts that Test 4 is good. ## Theorem 4.7.1 Let \( B' \) be the set of integers \( m \) such that \( (n, m) \) returns ‘inconclusive’ in Test 4. (a) If \( B' \) generates \( U_n \), then \( n \) is prime. (b) If \( B' \) consists of at most half of the integers in \( [1, n-1] \). **Proof:** Suppose \( B' \) and let \( m \) be the odd part of \( n - 1 \). Then either \( m \equiv 1 \mod 2^{r} - 1 \) for some \( i \in [0, n-1] \). In the former case the cyclic subgroup \( C(y) \) has odd order, since \( m \) is odd, and in the latter case \( C(y) \) contains \(-1\). Image Analysis: ### Analysis of Attached Visual Content: **1.

If \( B' \) generates the full group \( U_n \), then \( B \) does too, and by lemma 4.7.2, \( n \) is a prime power, say \( n = p^k \). Also, in either of the above cases we have \( b^{\ell} \equiv 1 \), so the same holds for all \( b \in B' \), and so for all \( x \in U_n \), we have \( x^{\ell} \equiv 1 \), since \( B' \) generates \( U_n \). Now, \( g \) is cyclic of order \[ \phi(n) = \phi\left(\frac{n}{p^{k-1}}\right) \] By theorem 4.5.3 there are primitive roots modulo \( n = p^k \). Let \( g \) be one of these. The order of \( g \) is \( k \), since the set of all its powers is identical with \( U_n \), and on the other hand is a divisor of \( n - 1 = p^{k-1} - 1 \) since \( x^{k} \equiv 1 \) for all \( x \), and in particular for \( g \). Hence \( p^{k-1} - 1 \) (which, if \( k > 1 \), is a multiple of \( p \)) divides \( \phi(n) \) and \( k = 1 \), which completes the proof of part (a) of the theorem. In part (b), \( n \) is composite and so \( B' \) cannot generate all of \( U_n \) by part (a). Hence \( B' \) generates a proper subgroup of \( U_n \), and so can contain at most half as many elements as \( U_n \) contains, and the proof is complete. Another application of the same circle of ideas to compute elements occurs in the generation of random numbers on a computer. A good way to do this is to choose a primitive root modulo the word size of your computer, and then, each time the user asks for a random number, output the next higher power of the primitive root. The fact that you started with a primitive root ensures that the number of "random numbers" generated before repetition sets in will be as large as possible. Now we'll summarize the way in which the primality test is used. Suppose there is a large integer \( n \), and we would like to determine if it is prime. We could use: ```pascal function test(n, outcome); times := 0; repeat choose an integer \( b \) uniformly at random in \( [2, n - 1] \); apply the strong pseudoprimality test (Test 4) to the pair \( (n, b) \); times := times + 1; until \( result \) is \( 'composite' \) or \( times = 100 \); if \( times = 100 \) then outcome := \( 'probably prime' \) else outcome := \( 'composite' \) end(test) ``` If the procedure exits with \( n \) is \( 'composite' \), then we can be certain that \( n \) is not prime. If we want to see the factors of \( n \) then it will be necessary to use some factorization algorithm, such as the one described below in section 4.9. On the other hand, if the procedure halts because it has been through 100 trials without a conclusive result, then the integer \( n \) is very probably prime. More precisely, the chance that a composite integer \( n \) would have behaved like that is less than \( 2^{-100} \). If we want certainty, however, it will be necessary to apply a test whose outcome will prove primality, such as the algorithm of Adleman, Rumely and Pomerance, referred to earlier. In section 4.9 we will discuss a probabilistic factoring algorithm. Before doing so, in the next section we will present a remarkable application of the complexity of the factoring problem, to cryptography. Such applications remind us that primality and factorization algorithms have important applications beyond pure mathematics, in areas of vital public concern. ## Exercises for section 4.7 1.

If \( B' \) generates the full group \( U_n \), then \( B \) does too, and by lemma 4.7.2, if \( n \) is a prime power, \( n = p^k \). Also, in either of the above cases we have \( b^{\phi(n)} \equiv 1 \), so the same holds for all \( b \in B' \), and so for all \( x \in U_n \), we have \( x^{n-1} \equiv 1 \), since \( B' \) generates \( U_n \). Now, \( n \) is cyclic or direct. By theorem 4.5.3 there are primitive roots modulo \( n = p^k \). Let \( g \) be one of these. The order of \( g \) is, on the one hand, \( p^{k-1}(p-1) \) since the set of all its powers is identical with \( U_n \), and on the other hand is a divisor of \( n - 1 = i^{k} - 1 \) for all \( a \), and in particular for \( a = g \). Hence \( p^{k-1}(p - 1) \) (which, if \( k > 1 \), is a multiple of \( p \)) divides \( p \) (which is one less than a multiple of \( p \)), and so \( k = 1 \), which completes the proof of part (a) of the theorem. In part (b), \( n \) is composite and so \( B' \) cannot generate all of \( U_n \) by part (a). Hence \( B' \) generates a proper subgroup of \( U_n \), and so can contain at most half as many elements as \( U_n \) contains, and the proof is complete. Another application of the same circle of ideas to compute elements occurs in the generation of random numbers on a computer. A good way to do this is to choose a primitive root modulo the word size of your computer, and then, each time the user asks for a random number, output the next higher power of the primitive root. The fact that you started with a primitive root insures that the number of "random numbers" generated before repetition sets in will be as large as possible. Now we'll summarize the way in which the primality test is used. Suppose there is a large integer \( n \), and we would like to determine if it is prime. We can do this with: ``` function test(n, outcome); times = 0; repeat choose an integer \( k \) uniformly at random in \( [2, n-1] \); apply the strong pseudoprimality test (Test 4) to the pair \( (n, k) \); times = times + 1 until \( (result = 'is composite') \text{ or times = 100} \; if times = 100 then outcome := 'is probably prime' else outcome := 'is composite' end{test} ``` If the procedure exits with \( n \) is composite, then we can be certain that \( n \) is not prime. If we want to see the factors of \( n \) then it will be necessary to use some factorization algorithm, such as the one described below in section 4.9. On the other hand, if the procedure halts because it has been through 100 trials without a conclusive result, then the integer \( n \) is very probably prime. More precisely, the chance that a composite integer \( n \) would have behaved like that is less than \( 2^{-100} \). If we want certainty, however, it will be necessary to apply a test whose outcome will prove primality, such as the algorithm of Adleman, Rumely and Pomerance, referred to earlier. In section 4.9 we will discuss a probabilistic factoring algorithm. Before doing so, in the next section we will present a remarkable application of the complexity of the factoring problem to cryptography. Such applications remind us that primality and factorization algorithms have important applications beyond pure mathematics, in areas of vital public concern. ## Exercises for section 4.7 1. For \( n = 9 \) and \( r = 15 \), find all of the cyclic groups \( C_u \) of lemma 4.7.2, and find the set \( B \). 2. For \( n = 9 \) and \( r = 15 \) find the set \( B' \) of theorem 4.1.

Now let's look at the complexity of algorithm \( A \). We will measure its complexity by the number of times that we have to do a computation of either of the types (a) \( s \equiv \prod_{i} g^{s_i} \) or (b) \( (b) \, s^e \equiv 1 \, (\text{mod} \, p) \). Let \( f(p) \) be that number. Then we have (remembering that the algorithm calls itself \( t \) times) \[ f(p) = 1 + \sum_{i=2}^{r} f(p_i) + r + 1 \tag{4.10.1} \] in which the four terms, as written, correspond to the four steps in the checking algorithm. The sum begins with \( i = 2 \) because the prime 2, which is always a divisor of \( p - 1 \), is 'free.' Now (4.10.1) can be written as \[ g(p) = 1 + f(p). \tag{4.10.2} \] We claim that \( g(p) \leq 4 \log_2 p \) for all \( p \). This is surely true if \( p = 2 \). If true for primes less than \( p \) then from (4.10.2), \[ g(p) \leq \sum_{i=2}^{r} 4 \log_2 p_i + 4 \] \[ = 4 \log_2 \left( \prod_{i=2}^{r} p_i \right) + 4 \] \[ \leq 4 \log_2 \left( \frac{(p-1)}{2} \right) + 4 \] \[ = 4 \log_2 (p - 1) \leq 4 \log_2 p. \] Hence \( f(p) \leq 4 \log_2 p - 1 \) for all \( p \geq 2 \). Since the number of bits in \( p \) is \( \Theta(\log p) \), the number \( f(p) \) is a number of executions of steps that is a polynomial in the length of the input bit string. We leave to the exercises the verification that the steps that \( f(p) \) counts is also executed in polynomial time, so the entire primality-verification procedure operates in polynomial time. This yields **Theorem 4.10.1.** (W. Pratt, 1975) There exists a checking algorithm and a certificate such that primality can be verified in polynomial time. ## Exercises for section 4.10 1. Show that two positive integers of \( b \) bits each can be multiplied with at most \( O(b^2) \) bit operations (multiplications and carries). 2. Prove that step A1 of algorithm \( A \) can be executed in polynomial time, where time is now measured by the number of bit operations that are implied by the integer multiplications. 3. Same as exercise 2 above, for steps 4.3 and A4. 4. Write out the complete certificate that attests to the primality of \( p \). 5. Find an upper bound for the total number of bits that are in the certificate of the integer \( p \). 6. Carry out the complete checking algorithm on the certificate that you prepared in exercise 4 above. 7. Let \( p = 15 \). Show that there is no integer \( x \) as described in the hypotheses of lemma 4.10.1. 8. Let \( p = 17 \). Find all integers \( x \) that satisfy the hypotheses of lemma 4.10.1.
