    Study Notes

    EMath 105 Discrete Mathematics I for SE

    • Course offered by the ECE Department
    • Topics include Discrete Mathematics fundamentals and applications for SE students

    Number Theory

    • The integers and division are fundamental concepts in number theory
    • Number theory involves specific notations, terminology, and theorems associated with integers and division, vital for various algorithms like hash functions, cryptography, digital signatures, and online security.

    The Divides Operator

    • Notation: 3 | 12 (read as "3 divides 12")

    • Specifies when an integer evenly divides another integer.

    • Notation: 5 | -12 (read as "5 divides -12")

    • Specifies when an integer evenly divides another integer.

    • Notation: 5 ∤\nmid∤ 12 (read as "5 does not divide 12")

    • Specifies when an integer does not evenly divide another integer.

    • Key Definitions:

      • a divides b (written as a | b): There is an integer c such that c * a = b
      • Factor/Divisor of b: if a divides b, then a is a factor or divisor of b
      • Multiple of a: if a divides b, then b is a multiple of a.
    • Examples:

      • 3|-12 is True
      • 3|7 is False

    Results on the Divides Operator

    • If a | b and a | c, then a | (b + c)
    • If a | b, then a | bc for all integers c
    • If a | b and b | c, then a | c

    Divides Relation

    • Va, b, c ∈\in∈ Z:
      • a|0
      • (a|b ∧\land∧ a|c)   ⟹  \implies⟹ a | (b + c)
      • a|b   ⟹  \implies⟹ a|bc
      • (a|b ∧\land∧ b|c)   ⟹  \implies⟹ a|c
    • Corollary: If a, b, c are integers, such that a | b and a | c, then a | mb + nc whenever m and n are integers.

    Quotient and Remainder

    • In division of a by d:

      • q = quotient, r = remainder
      • a = d × q + r
      • 0 ≤ r < |d|
    • Example:

      • 101 divided by 11: 101 = 11 × 9 + 2
        • q = 9
        • r = 2
    • More Examples:

      • 25 mod 7 = 4
      • 25 mod 5 = 0
      • 35 mod 11 = 2

    Modular Arithmetic

    • If a and b are integers and m is a positive integer, then "a is congruent to b modulo m" if m divides a − b.
    • Notation: a ≡ b (mod m).
    • Rephrased: m | (a−b)
    • Rephrased: a mod m = b mod m

    Number Systems

    • Decimal (base 10): digits 0-9
    • Binary (base 2): digits 0-1
    • Octal (base 8): digits 0-7
    • Hexadecimal (base 16): digits 0-9, A-F (A=10, B=11, C=12, D=13, E=14, F=15)

    Conversion to Base b

    • Given an integer n and a base b>1, Algorithm used to find base b-representation
    • Find n mod b to get the rightmost digit.
    • Replace n with the quotient n/b
    • Repeat

    Binary, Octal, Hexadecimal Representation Conversion

    • Conversion between binary, octal, and hexadecimal is straightforward using grouping.
    • Octal digits correspond to three binary digits.
    • Hexadecimal digits correspond to four binary digits

    Algorithms for Integer Operations

    • Addition Algorithm: Example for adding binary numbers provided (e.g., (1110)2 + (1011)2 = (11001)2

    • Multiplication Algorithm: Example provided (e.g., (110)2 * (101)2 = (11110)2)

    • Modular exponentiation: Algorithm to calculate bn mod m efficiently, important for large integers, Example given

    • Division and modulus algorithm

    Combinatorial Analysis

    • Fundamental counting principles

      • Product Rule: If there are n₁ ways to do the first step, and n₂ ways to do the second, then n₁n₂ are possible for both
      • Sum Rule: If there are n₁ ways to do one task and n₂ ways to do a second task, the total ways to complete one task OR the other is n₁ + n₂
    • Counting Examples provided in the notes

    • Permutations: Formula P(n,r) = n! / (n-r)!

    • Circular arrangements: The number of circular arrangements of n distinct items is n-1

    • Inclusion-Exclusion Principle

    • Combinations: Formula C(n,r) = n! / (r! (n-r)!)

    Bit strings

    • Problems involving bit strings with specific requirements (e.g., number of 1's) are outlined with examples

    Exercises

    • A collection of practice problems related to these concepts. Sample exercises are included in the notes (e.g., number of possible passwords, choosing a committee of students and faculty)

    The Pigeonhole Principle

    • Basic principle applied in counting problems, Example provided, and conditions
    • If there are more pigeons than holes, at least one hole must have more than one pigeon

    Trees Diagrams

    • Algorithm for listing all sequences of events, Example given for coin flip scenarios

    • Additional problems and exercises related to counting, permutations, and combinations in various scenarios are available in the notes
