1. For n-pg, where p and q are distinct odd primes, define (p-1)(q-1) λ(n) gcd(-1-1.411) Suppose that we modify the RSA cryptosystem by requiring that ed 1 mod X(n). a. Prove that encryption and decryption are still inverse operations in this modified cryptosystem. RSA cryptosystem.
8) (Problem 17 (a) on page 49) Let p and q be two distinct primes. Show that for any integer a, pq|(a p+q − a p+1 − a q+1 + a 2 ). Hint: Find the least residue of a p+q − a p+1 − a q+1 + a 2 modulo p, and then find the least residue of a p+q − a p+1 − a q+1 + a 2 modulo q. After that, use the following result: Suppose x,...
6. Let n be any positive integer which n = pq for distinct odd primes p. q for each i, jE{p, q} Let a be an integer with gcd(n, a) 1 which a 1 (modj) Determine r such that a(n) (mod n) and prove your answer.
(i) State Sylow's theorems. (ii) Suppose G is a group with IGI pr where p, q and r are distinct primes. Let np, nq and nr, denote, respectively, the number of Sylow p, q- and r-subgroups of G. Show that Hence prove that G is not a simple group. (iii) Prove that a group of order 980 cannot be a simple group.
Problem 4.51. Let p and q be distinct primes. Find the number of generators of Zpa
Suppose that pı, P2, ..., P, are the only primes congruent to 1 (mod 4). Prove that 4p?p, ... p, + 1 is divisible only by primes congruent to 3 (mod 4). Assuming that all odd prime factors of integers of the form x2 +1 are congruent to 1 (mod 4), use Exercise 6 to prove that there exist infinitely many primes congruent to 1 (mod 4).

7.19 Theorem (Quadratic Reciprocity Theorem and q be odd primes, then Reciprocity Part). Let p (e)99 (mod 4) if p (mod 4) or q1 i p 3 (mod 4). (i)) (llint: Iry to use the techniquets used in the case of Putting together all our insights, the Law of Quadratic Reciprocity. we can write one theorem that we call Theorem (Iaw of Quadratic Reciprocity). Let p and q be odd primes, then if p...

Suppose that Bob wants to create an example of an RSA public-key cryptosystem by using the two primes p ??? and q ???. He chooses public encryption key e He was further supposed to compute the private decryption key d such that ed 1 mod A(pq)). However, he confuses A and and computes instead d' such that ed' =1 (mod P(pq)). (i) Prove that d' works as a decryption key, even though it is not necessarily the same...
