Theorems in number theory

Behrend's theorem

In arithmetic combinatorics, Behrend's theorem states that the subsets of the integers from 1 to in which no member of the set is a multiple of any other must have a logarithmic density that goes to zero as becomes large. The theorem is named after Felix Behrend, who published it in 1935. (Wikipedia).

Introduction to additive combinatorics lecture 10.8 --- A weak form of Freiman's theorem

In this short video I explain how the proof of Freiman's theorem for subsets of Z differs from the proof given earlier for subsets of F_p^N. The answer is not very much: the main differences are due to the fact that cyclic groups of prime order do not have lots of subgroups, so one has to

Theory of numbers: Gauss's lemma

This lecture is part of an online undergraduate course on the theory of numbers. We describe Gauss's lemma which gives a useful criterion for whether a number n is a quadratic residue of a prime p. We work it out explicitly for n = -1, 2 and 3, and as an application prove some cases of Di

Theory of numbers: Congruences: Euler's theorem

This lecture is part of an online undergraduate course on the theory of numbers. We prove Euler's theorem, a generalization of Fermat's theorem to non-prime moduli, by using Lagrange's theorem and group theory. As an application of Fermat's theorem we show there are infinitely many prim

Irreducibility and the Schoenemann-Eisenstein criterion | Famous Math Probs 20b | N J Wildberger

In the context of defining and computing the cyclotomic polynumbers (or polynomials), we consider irreducibility. Gauss's lemma connects irreducibility over the integers to irreducibility over the rational numbers. Then we describe T. Schoenemann's irreducibility criterion, which uses some
