It is given that alpha is in F. Why does this imply that Z_p(alpha) is a subset of F?
2. What does it mean that “alpha is a generator of the multiplicative cyclic group F* of nonzero elements of F”? How does this show that Z_p(alpha)=F?
3. What is meant by |F|=p^n and how does this show that the degree of alpha over Z_p is n?
11. Let F be a finite field of pn elements containing the prime subfield Zp?. Show that if ??F is a generator of the cyclic group ?F?,?? of nonzero elements of F, then deg(?,Zp?)=n.
