  25. e.g.11 (Page 17) • Illustration of Lemma 2.13 k = 102 j = 70 Consider two integers 102 and 70. Suppose that we can write 102 as 102 = 70.1 + 32 q = 1 r = 32 According to the lemma, we have gcd(102, 70) = gcd(70, 32)

  26. e.g.12 (Page 17) • Prove the following lemma is correct. If j, k, q and r are non-negative integers such that k = jq + r then gcd(j, k) = gcd(r, j)

  27. If j, k, q and r are non-negative integers such that k = jq + r then gcd(j, k) = gcd(r, j) e.g.12 Consider two cases. Case 2: r > 0 Case 1: r = 0 e.g., if 10 = 2q then gcd(2, 10) = 2 Since k = jq + r, we have k = jq Consider gcd(j, k) = j e.g., gcd(0, 7) = 7 Consider gcd(r, j) = gcd(0, j) = j Thus, gcd(j, k) = gcd(r, j)

  28. If j, k, q and r are non-negative integers such that k = jq + r then gcd(j, k) = gcd(r, j) e.g.12 Consider two cases. Case 2: r > 0

  29. If j, k, q and r are non-negative integers such that k = jq + r then gcd(j, k) = gcd(r, j) e.g.12 Consider two cases. Case 2: r > 0 We want to prove the following. Claim 1: If d is a common divisor of j and k, then d is a common divisor of r and j. Claim 2: If d is a common divisor of r and j, then d is a common divisor of j and k.

  30. If j, k, q and r are non-negative integers such that k = jq + r then gcd(j, k) = gcd(r, j) e.g.12 Claim 1: If d is a common divisor of j and k, then d is a common divisor of r and j. Consider two cases. Case 2: r > 0 Let d be a common divisor of j and k d is a divisor of j j can be written as j = i1d where i1 is a non-negative integer d is a divisor of k k can be written as k = i2d where i2 is a non-negative integer Consider k = jq + r r = k – jq =i2d – i1d.q =(i2 – i1q)d We conclude that d is a divisor of r Since d is a divisor of j d is a common divisor of r and j

  31. If j, k, q and r are non-negative integers such that k = jq + r then gcd(j, k) = gcd(r, j) e.g.12 Claim 1: If d is a common divisor of j and k, then d is a common divisor of r and j. Consider two cases. Claim 2: If d is a common divisor of r and j, then d is a common divisor of j and k. Case 2: r > 0 Let d be a common divisor of r and j d is a divisor of r r can be written as r = i3d where i3 is a non-negative integer d is a divisor of j j can be written as j = i1d where i1 is a non-negative integer Consider k = jq + r = i1d.q + i3d = (i1q + i3)d We conclude that d is a divisor of k Since d is a divisor of j d is a common divisor of j and k

  32. 2 2 5 5 3 11 11 3 7 … … 7 If j, k, q and r are non-negative integers such that k = jq + r then gcd(j, k) = gcd(r, j) e.g.12 Claim 1: If d is a common divisor of j and k, then d is a common divisor of r and j. Consider two cases. Claim 2: If d is a common divisor of r and j, then d is a common divisor of j and k. Case 2: r > 0 From Claim 1 and Claim 2, we conclude that d is a common divisor of j and k if and only if d is a common divisor of r and j. d is not a common divisor of j and k if and only if d is not a common divisor of r and j. A set of common divisors of j and k A set of common divisors of r and j A set of non-common divisors of r and j A set of non-common divisors of j and k We conclude that gcd(j, k) = gcd(r, j)

Suppose that we can write 102 as 102 = 70.1 + 32 q = 1 r = 32 This corresponds to r. r decreases and finally its value becomes 0. According to the lemma, we have gcd(102, 70) = gcd(70, 32) Note that 70 = 32.2 + 6 gcd(70, 32) = gcd(32, 6) Note that 32 = 6.5 + 2 gcd(32, 6) = gcd(6, 2) Note that 6 = 2.3 + 0 gcd(6, 2) = gcd(2, 0) Thus, gcd(102, 70) = gcd(2, 0) = 2

  34. e.g.13 Suppose that we want to find gcd(102, 70) k = j.q + r k j q r 102 70 1 32 102 = 70.1 + 32 70 32 2 6 70 = 32.2 + 6 32 = 6.5 + 2 32 6 5 2 6 2 3 0 6 = 2.3 + 0 gcd(102, 70) = gcd(2, 0) = 2

(5 .9 2) .9x = 5 .9 3 1 .9x = 5 .9 3 Thus, we conclude that onlyx that satisfies the equation (*) is 5 .9 3 x = 5 .9 3

  39. e.g.16 (Page 26) • Illustration of Theorem 2.7 If 2 has a multiplicative inverse 5 in Z9 then the inverse 5 is unique. Why is it correct? According to Lemma 2.5 Consider 2 .9x = b ……(*) If 2 has a multiplicative inverse 5 in Z9 then x = 5 .9 b and this solution is unique.

  47. Lemma 2.5Consider equation 2 .6x = b If 2 has a multiplicative inverse x’ in Z6 equation “2 .6x = b” has a solution x = x’ .6 b e.g.19 (Page 30) The equation “2x mod 6 = 3” does not have a solution • Illustration of Corollary 2.6 • If there is a b  Z6 (e.g., 3) such that 2 .6x = b ………… (*)does not have a solution, then 2 does not have a multiplicative inverse in Z6 2x is equal to an even number. 2x mod 6 is also equal to an even number. Why is it correct? Proof by contradiction Suppose that 2 has a multiplicative inverse x’ in Z6 By Lemma 2.5, we know that equation “2 .6x = b” has a solution x = x’ .6 b This leads to a contradiction that equation “2 .6x = b” does not have a solution.

  48. X 5 X X 1 In some of our previous slides, we derive that 2 does not have a multiplicative inverse in Z6by checking the table. Z6 e.g.19 The equation “2x mod 6 = 3” does not have a solution • Illustration of Corollary 2.6 • If there is a b  Z6 (e.g., 3) such that 2 .6x = b ………… (*)does not have a solution, then 2 does not have a multiplicative inverse in Z6 2x is equal to an even number. 2x mod 6 is also equal to an even number. How will we use this corollary? Consider that the exam question asks you whether 2 has a multiplicative inverse in Z6. Suppose that we find that the equation “2x mod 6 = 3” does not have a solution (i.e., 2 .6 x = 3 does not have a solution) According to this corollary, we conclude that 2 does not have a multiplicativeinverse in Z6.

  50. e.g.20 • Illustration of Lemma 2.8 The modular equation 2 .7 x = 1 has a solution in Z7 if and only if there exist integers x, y such that 2x + 7y = 1 Why is it correct? Only if The modular equation 2 .7 x = 1 has a solution x in Z7 We can write as 2x mod 7 = 1 We can re-write as 2x = 7q + 1 where q is an integer 2x – 7q = 1 2x + 7(-q) = 1 Thus, there exist integers x, y such that 2x + 7y = 1 where y = -q
