Exponential time hypothesisIn computational complexity theory, the exponential time hypothesis is an unproven computational hardness assumption that was formulated by . It states that satisfiability of 3-CNF Boolean formulas cannot be solved in subexponential time, i.e., for all constant , where n is the number of variables in the formula. The exponential time hypothesis, if true, would imply that P ≠ NP, but it is a stronger statement.
Multiplicative group of integers modulo nIn modular arithmetic, the integers coprime (relatively prime) to n from the set of n non-negative integers form a group under multiplication modulo n, called the multiplicative group of integers modulo n. Equivalently, the elements of this group can be thought of as the congruence classes, also known as residues modulo n, that are coprime to n. Hence another name is the group of primitive residue classes modulo n. In the theory of rings, a branch of abstract algebra, it is described as the group of units of the ring of integers modulo n.
Fonction multiplicativeEn arithmétique, une fonction multiplicative est une fonction arithmétique f : N* → C vérifiant les deux conditions suivantes : f(1) = 1 ; pour tous entiers a et b > 0 premiers entre eux, on a : f (ab) = f(a)f(b). Une fonction complètement multiplicative est une fonction arithmétique g vérifiant : g(1) = 1 ; pour tous entiers a et b > 0, on a : g(ab) = g(a)g(b). Ces dénominations peuvent varier d'un ouvrage à un autre : fonction faiblement multiplicative pour fonction multiplicative, fonction multiplicative ou totalement multiplicative pour fonction complètement multiplicative.
