What are primitive roots modulo n? - Mathematics Stack Exchange
The important fact is that the only numbers $n$ that have primitive roots modulo $n$ are of the form $2^\varepsilon p^m$, where $\varepsilon$ is either $0$ or $1$, $p$ is an odd prime, and $m\ge0$
elementary number theory - Find all the primitive roots of $13 ...
Jun 6, 2016 · 2 Primes have not just one primitive root, but many. So you find the first primitive root by taking any number, calculating its powers until the result is 1, and if p = 13 you must have 12 …

Show that $2$ is a primitive root modulo $13$.
Hence $2$ has order $12$ modulo 13 and is therefore a primitive root modulo $13$. Now note all even powers of $2$ can't be primitive roots as they are squares modulo $13$. $ (*)$

abstract algebra - Theorem on primitive n-th root of unity ...
Oct 13, 2020 · For example, if $\zeta$ is a primitive sixth root of unity, then so is $\zeta^5=\zeta^ {-1}$. Of course $\zeta^3=-1$ is not a primitive sixth root of unity; it is a primitive second root of unity.
