Carmichael's totient function conjecture

In mathematics, Carmichael's totient function conjecture concerns the multiplicity of values of Euler's totient function φ(n), which counts the number of integers less than and coprime to n. It states that, for every n there is at least one other integer m ≠ n such that φ(m) = φ(n).Robert Carmichael first stated this conjecture in 1907, but as a theorem rather than as a conjecture. However, his proof was faulty, and in 1922, he retracted his claim and stated the conjecture as an open problem. (Wikipedia).

Introduction to Euler's Totient Function!

Euler's totient function φ(n) is an important function in number theory. Here we go over the basics of the definition of the totient function as well as the value for prime numbers and powers of prime numbers! Modular Arithmetic playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLug5ZIRrShJ

Weil conjectures 1 Introduction

This talk is the first of a series of talks on the Weil conejctures. We recall properties of the Riemann zeta function, and describe how Artin used these to motivate the definition of the zeta function of a curve over a finite field. We then describe Weil's generalization of this to varie

Reciprocals, powers of 10, and Euler's totient function II | Data Structures Math Foundations 203

We introduce the idea of the unit group U(n) of a natural number n. This is an algebraic object that contains important data about how multiplication mod n works, even for a composite number n. There is a natural connection with Euler's totient function, and we will see how to exploit this

Explicit Formula for Euler's Totient Function!

Totient of p^a: https://youtu.be/NgZ33qr5WHM?t=210 Product formula: https://youtu.be/qpYqvNBQZ4g Euler's totient function involves counting how many numbers are coprime to n. In fact, we can calculate this value directly as long as we know the prime factors! This makes many theorems in n

Some identities involving the Riemann-Zeta function.

After introducing the Riemann-Zeta function we derive a generating function for its values at positive even integers. This generating function is used to prove two sum identities. http://www.michael-penn.net http://www.randolphcollege.edu/mathematics/
