Preface
Not all of mathematics can (or should) be taught in formal
textbooks. Just as an English course is enlivened by selections
from literature, a mathematics course can gain depth and interest

The dots at the end mean that there are still larger primes. How
large do the primes get? You can probably find a prime larger than
100, but could you find one larger than 1,000,000?
(How would you go about finding a prime larger than 100? If
you test a given number, 101 say, by dividing it in succession by
various numbers, would you have to try all integers less than 101
less than 101? If so, wouldn't it be enough to try all primes less
than \/l01? See if you can prove that if an integer n has a proper

So whether A is prime or composite, there is a prime of the
form 4k - 1 which is not one of the primes p^, p2, ..., pn. This
is the contradiction we were looking for, and we have proved the

a = a (mod m)
a + c = b + d (mod m)

ac = bd (mod m)

Preface
This volume contains the eight chapters :
(1) Arithmetic Functions - I - The Number of Divisors of an
Integer
(2) Arithmetic Functions - II - The Sum of the Divisors of an
Integer
(3) Arithmetic Functions - III - The Distribution of Primes and
the Function ir(n)

(7) Approximation of Irrationals by Rationals
(8) A New Field
These supplements were written for students who are especially
good in mathematics and who have a lively interest in the subject.
The author's aim in (l) and (2) is to lead the reader to discover
for himself some interesting results and to experience the thrill
of mathematical discovery. The others are more expository in
nature, but they contain exercises to clarify the material and to
give the reader a chance to work with the concepts which are intro
duced. It is suggested that the supplements be read with pencil
and paper at hand. All questions should be pondered and answered,
if possible when they occur. A casual reading of these supplements
is, in most cases, unprofitable, and in some cases impossible.
Answers have been provided. However, it is suggested that
these answers should not be consulted until the reader has finished
working through the unit or until he reaches a point where he needs
an answer in order to proceed.
For the most part the units are independent of each other.
However, some have somewhat tenuous ties with certain chapters of
the 11th grade material of the SMSG, (Intermediate Mathematics) .
In particular, Sections (l) and (2) may be used at any time
after the student has completed Chapter 3 of Intermediate Mathe
matics. While they are independent, Section (2) is easier and more
meaningful if
Section (l) has been done previously.
i
Section (3) may be read also after Chapter 3 of Intermediate
Mathematics. However, on the last pagelogarithms are mentioned
and for this reason it may be more useful after Chapter 8 of Inter
mediate Mathemat i c s . (logarithms and exponents).
Section (4) may be used at any time after Chapter 2 of Inter
mediate Mathematics (in which linear equations are discussed) .
Section (5) is designed to follow Chapter 5 on complex numbers
and also to pave the way for the section entitled "A New Field".
Section (6) naturally follows Chapter 9 on induction.
Section (8) assumes familiarity with Chapters 5 and 15 of
Intermediate Mathematics.

THE SUM OF THE DIVISORS OF AN INTEGER
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."
The Genesis account of creation goes on to tell how God labored
for six days, and on the seventh day He rested. As early as the
sixth century B. C. the Pythagorean brotherhood classified integers
into deficient, abundant, and perfect numbers according to whether
the sum of the proper divisors of the integer was less than, great
er than, or equal to the integer itself. Proper here means that
the integer itself is not counted as one of its divisors. Thus the
fact that 6 and 28 were perfect numbers, that is, 6=1+2+3
and 28 =1+2+4+7+14 , special significance.
gave them a
The ancients saw in the number six a symbol of the perfection of
the creation. The discovery that the phases of the moon repeat
every 28 days may also have had a part in the designation of these
as perfect numbers.
Can you find any other perfect numbers?
Euclid includes in his ELEMENTS a rule for obtaining even per
fect numbers. Before we consider Euclid's rule, let us take a
detour and consider the problem of finding the sum of the divisors
of a number. The sum of the divisors of an integer is an arithmetic
function, that is a function defined over the positive intergers.
We first note that the sum of the divisors is equal to the sum of
the proper divisors and the number itself. The usual notation for
the sum of the divisors of n is <T(n) where (T is the Greek letter

DISTRIBUTION OP PRIMES AND THE FUNCTION ir(n)
THE
One of the most interesting problems in the study of the
integers has to do with the distribution of primes. A prime is an
integer which has exactly two divisors, 1 and the integer itself.
The first few primes are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31.
In the supplement entitled Prime Numbers several interesting facts
about primes are discussed One of these is that there are infin
itely many primes It is also shown in that supplement that there
are arbitrarily large gaps in the sequence of primes. On the other

we have
deciding whether a given integer is a prime -- we need only try as
divisors, primes which are < \/n . For large n this is a great
help. However, it only tells us about a particular integer n .
Eratosthenes (c. 230 b.c.) devised a method, which we now call the
sieve of Ertosthenes, for sieving out all primes less than a given
integer if
we know the primes up to \/n . It goes like this.
Write down all the integers ^ n . For example, take n = 25 .

pick out those which are common. For instance, to find (248, 312),
we write 248 - 23 .
31 and 312 = 23 . 3 . 13. Then clearly
(248, 312) = 8 . However, suppose the numbers are large and it
isn't easy to find the factors of either number. For example,
suppose we are asked to find (782, 3315) . The usual method works
of course, but is not as easy as in the cases we have previously
encountered. Another method which solves this problem is attributed
to Euclid (who lived about 300 B.C.).
22
It goes like this:
3315 = 782.4 + 187
782 = 187.4 + 34
187 = 34.5 +@
34 = 17.2 + 0
Euclid's (or algorithm) gives 17 , the last non-zero re
method
mainder, as the greatest common divisor of 3315 and 782. That
17 is the greatest common divisor can be proved as follows. First,
proceeding from the bottom to the top, we can see that 17 divides
each number on the left hand side as follows :
34 = 17.2
187 = 17 (2.5 + 1)
782 = 17 (2.5 + l) 4 + 17.2 = 17 {(2.5 + 1). 4 + 2]

The greatest common divisor is 1 , the last non-zero remainder.
Such which have
numbers 1 for their greatest common divisor are
called relatively prime . Check that (253, 122) = 1 by factoring

Suppose you stop reading at this point and try to find out how to
get a solution from what we have done so far.
Check your method with the following. From our discussion
above of Euclid's
algorithm, it is clear that we can always solve ax + by = d where
d = (a,b). To find a solution of the original equation let
c = d.c' . Now take the equation ax + by = d and multiply both
sides by c' We get
a(xc') + b(yc') = dc' = c .
check your results with the reasoning in the answer sheet. You
will find there that the general solution may be given in the form
x =
x„o + §d t
y = y -
|t where t is an integer t .
(Plot these 2 numbers on the real line and look for the integers
to the right of -21/46 which are also to the left of -89/195.)
Consequently there are no positive solutions. Of course in this
particular problem this is clear from looking at the equation.
However, the method we have used will
lead you to the values of t
which give all positive solutions in any other problem.
Now you are in a position to find out the number of fruits in
each heap in our original problem. Go to it.
What is the smallest number of fruit there could have been in
each heap? Are there infinitely many positive solutions? Write
out the general formula for all solutions.
Here are a few more problems which you can solve using the
methods of this unit.

The equation (3) can be written 4n = m + c
This means that m and c are either both even or both odd.
They cannot both be odd.
Exercise 1.
Prove that the sum of the square of two odd numbers is not a
multiple of 4 .
Therefore both m and c are even and a and b are rational
integers.
We have then in both cases that a and b must be rational
integers and we are now able to say that the Gaussian integers are
complex of the form
numbers a + bi where a and b are actually
rational integers.
It is easy to check that the sum, difference, and product of
two Gaussian integers is a Gaussian integer.
Exercise 2.
Show that the sum, difference, and product of two Gaussian
integers is a Gaussian integer.
We see then that our new integers behave at least in these
respects like ordinary rational integers. When we come to division
we must look a little more closely.

Is the quotient of two rational integers a rational integer?

x + yi satisfies the original equation, and since these are not
rational integers, our answer is "No, 2 + 3i is not divisible
by 1 + i
."
Exercise 5-
Is 2 + 3i divisible by 2 - 3i ? by i ?
Exercise 6.
Is 3 + 11i divisible by 2 + 3i ? by -i ?
We have seen that the conjugate, a - bi , of the complex
number, a + bi , is useful in many questions concerning complex
numbers. We use the conjugate to define the norm of a complex
integer. The norm of a + bi is defined as (a + bi)(a - bi) =
2 2
a + b . We immediately notice several things about the norm of
a complex integer. In the first place, it is a rational integer
since a and b are. In the second place it is non-negative.
If b = integer a is a . These

The lemma can also be proved directly from the definition of
the norm. Let c*. = a + bi ,^3=c + di and write out the details
of this proof.
It is now easy to show

Proof: If u is a unit, it divides every integer and in

Exercise J.
Show that if ck and ft are associates their norms are equal.
We are now able to define a Gaussian prime as a Gaussian in
teger which is not a unit and which has no divisors except units
and its associates. Several interesting questions can now be asked.
1. Are rational primes Gaussian primes?
2. Are there infinitely many Gaussian primes?
3. rational integers are Gaussian primes?
Which
We can answer the first without much trouble. 2 is a ration
al prime. However 2 = (l + i)(l - i) . Since 1 + i and 1 - i
have norm 2 , they are not units. The associates of 2 are 2 ,
-2 , 2i , and -2i . Therefore since 1 + i and 1 - i are
neither units nor associates of 2 , the rational prime 2 is not
a Gaussian prime.
33
Exercise 8.
Is 5 a Gaussian prime?
Exercise 9.
Is 3 s a Gaussian prime?
Let us now look more closely at rational primes of the form
4n + 3 . Suppose a rational prime p = 4n + 3=<*K . Then
N(p) =
N(cx)N(^3 ) = p . If p is not a Gaussian prime, then
there must exist ck and ft such that N( oC ) ^ 1 and N( ft ) £ 1.
In that case, N( <*
) = p and N( ft ) = p . But if <* = x + yi ,
o p
N(oc)=x+y = p = 4n + 3. This is impossible for no integer
of the form 4n + 3 is the sum of two squares.
Exercise 10.
Prove that no rational integer of the form 4n + 3 is the
sum of two squares by considering all possible cases for x and
y (both even, both odd, one even and one odd) .
Since the norm of <* and ft cannot be p , the norm of one of
them must be 1 and that one is a unit, and the other is an asso
ciate of p . Since divisors except units
p has no and associ
ates of p , we have proved the following theorem.
Theorem 2. Every rational prime of the form hn + 3 is a
Gaussian prime.
This proves also that there are infinitely many Gaussian
primes, since in the supplement Prime Numbers it is proved that
there are infinitely rational primes of the form 4n
many + 3 .
By hypothesis N( <x ) =
N( (3 )N( f ) = p , where p is a
rational prime.
Since N( ft ) and N( ) are rational integers, one of these is
1 and the other is p . The one whose norm is 1 is a unit and
we have the result that <* can only be written as a unit times an
associate of * . Therefore <* is a Gaussian prime.
q.e.d.
The other result which we need is that any rational prime of
the form 4n + 1 is the sum of two squares.
Exercise 14.
Write the following rational primes as the sum of two squares,
(a) 5 (b) 13 , (c) 17 , (d) 29 , (e) 101 , (f) 1721 .
,
Since the proof of this result requires more machinery from
the theory of numbers than we have available, we will not give the
proof here. (A proof can be found in any elementary number theory
book. )
We are now in a position to settle the question about rational
Exercise 1.
Write 37, 4l, 89, 101 as the sum of two squares. Can this be
done in more than one way?
38
Fermat's argument goes as follows. Suppose an arbitrarily chosen
prime, p = 4n + 1 , is not the sum of two squares. He then shows
that there is a smaller prime of this form which is not the sum of
two squares. Continuing in this way he arrives at the result that
5 is not the sum of two squares. But 5=2 2 +1 2 . This con
tradiction means that there was no prime of the form 4n + 1 which
was not the sum of two squares. We do not have Fermat's proof of
this theorem and in fact it was not until 17^9 that the first
rigorous proof was given by the Swiss mathematician Leonard Euler
(1707-1783).
Fermat discovered many deep and interesting properties of the
integers. Very few of his proofs have come down to us; however,
his method of infinite descent can be used to prove a special case
of one of the most famous theorems in mathematics, Fermat's Last
Theorem. In a margin of Bachet's Diophantus , Fermat made his
famous note regarding the problem of finding rational solutions of
the equation
(1) x2 + y2 = Z2 .
Accordingly we will
consider only solutions which have no
common factors. In this situation not all three integers x , y ,
(3) 4u2 + y2 = z2 or
u
4u
2 = z
2 - y2
(*) ^2 =
(z + y)(z - y) .
can make the same argument for each prime p. . Hence if any prime
divides a , so does its square; and this prime does not divide b_.
The same statement can be made for b_
. Accordingly, if we let
p. be the first prime that divides a , p. be the second, etc.;
xl x2
p. be the first prime that divides b_, p. be the second,
pop
1k+l xk+2
etc.; we must have
p

(p., p., ...P4 )
xl x2 xk 11 x2 xk

b = p. p. ...p, = (p., p1 ...p^ )

q. e.d.
We now return to our problem of finding the solutions to the
2 2 2
equation x + y = z . Since the greatest common divisor of
z + y and z - y is 2 , we can write (4) in the form
tu = *. 2 2
>
(6) z - y = 2w2 .
Exercise 5.
Show that v and w have no common factors.
Then substituting (5) and (6) in (4) we have
4u2 =
(2v2) (2w2) or
2 2 2
u = v w and
(7) u = vw .
(10) z = v2 + w2 .
Since y and z are both odd, one of v and w is even and the
other odd.
In the beginning we supposed that x, y , and z were any solu
tion without common factors and we have found the form which they
must assume.
We have then
2 2 2
Theorem 2. The solutions of x + y = z are given by
x = 2kvw ,
y =
k(v2 - w2) ,
o p
z =
k(v + w ) ',
x

+ y

. As above, if the equation has a solution x , y, z
and any pair of these integers
factor, that common has a common
factor then divides the third integer and both sides of the equa
tion can be divided by the fourth power of that common factor. So
if there is a solution, we can assume that the x, y, and z are
relatively prime in pairs; that is, every pair has greatest common
divisor 1 .
We also notice that if we can show that x
4
+ y
4
= z
2
is
impossible then so is x 4 + y 4 = z 4 , since the sum of two if
fourth powers isn't a square, it certainly can't be a fourth power.
therefore prove the simpler statement that x 4 + y 4 = z 2
We

for integers
some a and b with greatest common divisor 1 and
one of these even and the other odd. Suppose that b is even.
Since x = 2ab =
a(2b) and a and b have no common factors,
by Theorem 1, 2b is a square and a is a square. Set
a = d2 .
■p p p
From (ll) we have that a = b + y , and again by Theorem 2
b = 2rs ,
2
(13) y = r2 - s ,
a = r2 + s
2

common factor. But from (12) and (13) we have
p
2b = c = 4rs .
2
By Theorem 1, then r =

s =

we have +

If you have read the Supplement Prime Numbers you will know

,
21 - (4 + /=5) (4 - /=£)
As we have seen, the integers in the right members are primes in
J. Furthermore, they differ by more than just units, i.e., 3 is
not equal to any other factor times a unit. Here, then, we have
two essentially different factorizations of 21 in J . Factoriza
tion into primes in J is not unique.
The central theorem used in the proof of unique factorization
in the rational field is the following: if a prime p divides a
product ab , then p divides either a or b (or both). This
theorem, however, is false in J . For from (2) we deduce that
4 +
\/-5 divides 3,7 (since it divides 21), but it does not
divide either 3 or 7 . If we assume, e.g., that
(4 +
V^X - 7 ,
we get, taking norms,
.N* = N7 = 49 , 21
so that No( is not a rational integer as it has to be.
Unique factorization can be restored to K by introducing
certain new elements called: ideals. Every non-unit integer in K
is a unique product of prime ideals. You will learn this beauti
ful theory if you continue your mathematical studies in college.

4(x'2 + y'2+ y«) + 1 /S 4n + 3 for any
2 2
rational integer n . Therefore x + y ^ 4n + 3 for any inte
gers x and y . q.e.d.

Exercise 11.
Yes Suppose 1 + i = o{ V
N(l + i) =
N(<* M<3 )
2 =
we )
But since N( o{ ) and N( 65 ) are rational integers, one of
them is 2 other is 1 . Suppose
and the N( o( ) =1 ; then
is a unit. Therefore 1 + i is a prime since it can only be
written as a unit times an associate of 1 + i .
Exercise 12.
Yes. N(l - i) = 2 and we can repeat the same argument given
in Exercise 11.
Exercise 13.
No. Since every rational integer is a Gaussian integer, a
composite rational integer a = divisors the Gaussian
be has as
integers b and c which are not units or associates of a .
Exercise 14.
(a) 5 = 22 + l2 (d) 29 = 22 + 52
Exercise 1.
37 - 62 + l2 ; 41 52 + 42 ; 89 = 52 + 82 ; 101 - 102 + l2
Exercise 2:
2 2
Given: d divides x , d divides z , and x + y
Show: d divides y .
d2x'2 + y2 = d2z'2 ,
y2 =
d2(z'2 - x'2)
2 2
Therefore, d divides y and d divides y
Exercise 3.
If a number is odd its square is odd. If x , y , and z
2 2
are all odd then x + y is even; but x2 + y
2 = z
2
and
.2
z"~ is
odd. This contradiction shows that not all three numbers can be
odd.
Exercise 4.
If a number is even, its square is even; if a number is odd,
its square is odd. Consequently, the sum or difference of the
squares of two even numbers is an even number and it is impossible,
