Artin's conjecture on primitive roots

In number theory, Artin's conjecture on primitive roots states that a given integer a that is neither a square number nor −1 is a primitive root modulo infinitely many primes p. The conjecture also ascribes an asymptotic density to these primes. This conjectural density equals Artin's constant or a rational multiple thereof. The conjecture was made by Emil Artin to Helmut Hasse on September 27, 1927, according to the latter's diary. The conjecture is still unresolved as of 2022. In fact, there is no single value of a for which Artin's conjecture is proved. (Wikipedia).

Primitive Roots Method 2

This video describes what a primitive roots is. Also, how to test if a number (alpha) is primitive for a low/small modulus. Also note that there is a more efficient way of testing for a primitive root (if p-1 is easily factorable), which is discussed in part 2: https://www.youtube.com/wat

Theory of numbers: Congruences: Primitive roots

This lecture is part of an online undergraduate course on the theory of numbers. We define primitive roots, and show that all primes have primitive roots. Correction: At 16:00 two of the square roots of 1 should be (2^k)/2 +1, (2^k)/2-1, not 2^k/2, -2^k/2. For the other lectures in th
