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,...

(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.
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.

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.
N=pq with p,q distinct odd primes. Give an expression for the order of (Z/NZ)x in terms of p and q. Then, give an expression for the maximum order of a single element in (Z/NZ)x in terms of p and q.Why does that imply that there does not exist a primitive root modulo N?
