Study Notes
Prime Numbers
- A prime number is a positive integer that is divisible only by itself and 1.
Composite Numbers
- A composite number is a positive integer that has more than two distinct positive divisors.
Factoring
- To factor a number means to express it as a product of prime numbers.
- Factoring is the reverse of multiplication.
Prime Number Products
- The product of the prime numbers 2 and 3 is 6.
Euler's Totient Function
- Euler's totient function for a prime number is the number itself minus 1.
- Euler's totient function for the prime number 7 is 6.
Chinese Remainder Theorem
- The Chinese Remainder Theorem is a theorem in number theory that provides a unique solution to a system of congruences.
Cryptography
- The Diffie-Hellman key exchange algorithm uses the difficulty of computing discrete logarithms in a group to establish a shared secret key.
- The key exchange algorithm used in the Diffie-Hellman key exchange is modular exponentiation.
