初等数论 英语

Elementary number theory studies the properties and relations of integers. It

is an important branch of number theory and a basic course in mathematics. The content

of this course includes Euclid's algorithm and unique factorization, congruence,

the Chinese remainder theorem, Euler function, Fermat-Euler's theorem, Wilson

theorem, primitive roots, quadratic reciprocity, factorization of large integers,

the basic version of the RSA encryption method, quadratic rings and Euclidean domain,

sums of two squares revisited, Pell's equation, continued fractions, and sums of

four squares. The purpose of this course is to enable students to understand the

basic ideas in elementary number theory and how more general algebraic theories are

derived from the study of number theory problems, and to understand the application

of number theory in modern information technology.
