2 We artistically choose to maitai the ambiguity sice all alog we have implicitly chose to represet each class by its smallest o-egative member The other artistic choice here is the to use )) The set of equivalece classes is the partitio of iduced by The Discrete Math exercise that started this ivestigatio was listig the elemets of the partitio for 4 As it tured out i the exercise, 4 {[0],[1]} with [0] {eves} ad [1] {odds} We ca give a separate proof of this (*todo) The first questio i our ivestigatio was How may equivalece classes are there for each? This is the same questio as What s the size of for each? We created the fuctio that gives that value ad called it f( ), but let s reame it ow (( Artist s ote: u is the Greek letter for which stads for umber )) Defie : ( ) umber of equivalece classes for size of the set From Theorems 3 ad 5 about the symmetry ad periodicity of ( 1) /, odd ( ) +1, eve Theorem 7 the yields a further refiemet of Theorem 8 - ymmetry of Phi ( 1) /, odd ( ) +1, eve but , 4, we deduce that Argue usig periodicity ad symmetry from Theorems 3, 5, ad 7 A challegig proof? Let s defie a ew fuctio who value is oe less tha the maximum value of i Theorem 8 Defiitio ( 1) /, odd ( ), eve but 4 4, 4 Theorem 8 says that ( ) ( ) 1 Defiitio
3 We say that the diagram for is complete, or is complete, if ( ) ( ) 1 Whe is complete, has the maximum umber of equivalece classes possible by Theorem 8 The equivalece classes for are represeted by the cosecutive umbers 0,1,, ( ) {[0], [1],, [ ( )]} The diagram for will ot have ay dropouts The graph of will have its full saw-tooth shape that was first evisioed followig the observatio that a b ( a b)( a b) Theorem 9 - Prime If is prime, the is complete Has t bee proved yet Corollary If is prime ad, the ( ) ( 1) / Follows directly from Theorem 9 UTheorem 10 - If 4, the is complete Dis Do the Diagrams bear this out? Nope, 16 is ot complete sice [0] [4] ad 4 4 or 4 (16) What s complete? Are there ay more sufficiet coditios for beig complete? What do the Diagrams idicate? Dropouts If is ot complete, the it has dropouts Dropouts are where the saw-tooth shape is violated All that remais is to see if the dropouts have predictable patters Theorem 6 says whe there will be dropouts to [0] Theorem 6 - Characterizatio of [0] - oops, ot true The zero class [0] for is the set of all iteger multiples of the product of the prime factors of Use the lemma Lemma, a, a if ad oly if a is divisible by every prime factor of

Is s Ijective? urjective? Ca you say aythig about the values i certai sectios of the table of values? The values are either eve multiples of eves or odd multiples of odds Here s some defiitios that will help us use Theorem 6 ad help us study the fuctio s Defiitio If is composite but has o multiple prime factors, the is simple composite Otherwise, if is composite with multiple prime factors, the is multi composite The prime factor reductio of a umber is the umber obtaied by takig the prime factorizatio of ad reducig the power of each prime factor to oe m1 m m pfr :, pfr( ) p1 p pk whe p k 1 p p k All itegers are oe of three thigs: prime, simple composite, or multi composite pfr( ) if ad oly if is prime or simple composite Theorem 6 ca be restated: The zero-class for is the set of all multiples of pfr( ) Defiitio A eve umber divisible by 4 is called double eve A eve umber ot divisible by 4 is called sigle eve If a umber is double eve, it s the eve multiple of a eve umber We do t defie double odd sice all odd umbers are already the product of two odds (Verify) All itegers belog i oe of three classes: odd{k 1}, sigle eve{4k }, or double-eve{4 k } We ca restate the defiitio of as Theorem 11 -
6 The umbers i the image of s are either odd or double eve There are o sigle eve umbers i the image of s hould be easy What s complete? Let s get back to the characterizig of the completeess of Theorem 1 - The Dropout Theorem The diagram for has a dropout if ad oly if there s a multiple of expressible as a product c d of two odds or two eves whose average is less tha ( ) I this case, the dropout is Needs a proof c d c d Theorem 1 gives a reliable procedure for computig ( ) ad ( ) for ay The story First was the exercise The the observatio that a b ( a b)( a b) ad the first diagrams draw from the multiples of up The the saw tooth shape I the begiig, we did t thik about (we did t kow about) phi We did thik about our diagrams though Now that phi has become more importat, I m goig back ad editig the ames of Theorems 3, 5, 7, ad 9 Notice i particular whe reamig Theorem 7 sice we ca ow metio double eves The presetatio I m startig to evisio a parallel thig: you preset the material, the make a commet about the process that segues to me, the back to you agai Further work Is there a algebra o?
