- The Lemma on pg. 221
regarding when a^k -1 is
prime.

- Understand
- The cyclic nature
of the list a, a^2,
a^3, ... as well as
the relationship
between the
repeats on the list
and the order of a
modulo p

- Know
- Theorem 8.3: The
statement and the
idea of the proof of
the formula o(a^i)
- When primitive roots
exist, how many are
there?
- The idea in
the proof of
Lagrange's
Theorem. In
particular, if
ab=0 (mod p),
b=0 (mod p).
- The statement
of Theorem 8.6
(whose corollary
gives the
existence of
primitive roots
for primes.)
- The statement
of Theorem 11.1
regarding the
existence of
perfect
numbers. (Prove
the 'if'
direction.)
