A famous conjecture of Artin asserts that any integer $a$ that is neither $-1$ nor a square should be a primitive root (mod $p$) for a positive proportion of primes $p$. Moreover, using a heuristic argument, Artin guessed an explicit…

We consider an analogue of Artin's primitive root conjecture for units in real quadratic fields. Given such a nontrivial unit, for a rational prime p which is inert in the field the maximal order of the unit modulo p is p+1. An extension of…

The celebrated Artin conjecture on primitive roots asserts that given any integer $g$ which is neither $-1$ nor a perfect square, there is an explicit constant $A(g)>0$ such that the number $\Pi(x;g)$ of primes $p\le x$ for which $g$ is a…

This paper is continuation of the paper "Primitive roots in quadratic field". We consider an analogue of Artin's primitive root conjecture for algebraic numbers which is not a unit in real quadratic fields. Given such an algebraic number,…

E. Artin conjectured that any integer $a >1$ which is not a perfect square is a primitive root modulo $p$ for infinitely many primes $p.$ Let $f_a(p)$ be the multiplicative order of the non-square integer $a$ modulo the prime $p.$ M. R.…

An integer is a primitive root modulo a prime $p$ if it generates the whole multiplicative group $(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})^*$. In 1927 Artin conjectured that an integer $a$ which is not $-1$ or a square is a primitive root for infintely…

Fix an integer $g \neq -1$ that is not a perfect square. In 1927, Artin conjectured that there are infinitely many primes for which $g$ is a primitive root. Forty years later, Hooley showed that Artin's conjecture follows from the…

In 1927, E. Artin proposed a conjecture for the natural density of primes $p$ for which $g$ generates $(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})^\times$. By carefully observing numerical deviations from Artin's originally predicted asymptotic, Derrick and…

Let $K$ be a number field and let $G$ be a finitely generated subgroup of $K^\times$. For all but finitely many primes $\mathfrak p$ of $K$, the reduction $(G \bmod \mathfrak p)$ generates a well-defined subgroup of the multiplicative group…

We consider Artin's conjecture on primitive roots over a number field $K$, reducing an algebraic number $\alpha\in K^\times$. Under the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis, there is a density ${\mathrm{dens}}(\alpha)$ counting the proportion of…

Let $\Gamma\subset\mathbb{Q}^*$ be a finitely generated subgroup and let $p$ be a prime such that the reduction group $\Gamma_p$ is a well defined subgroup of the multiplicative group $\mathbb{F}_p^*$. We prove an asymptotic formula for the…

For an algebraic number $\alpha$ we consider the orders of the reductions of $\alpha$ in finite fields. In the case where $\alpha$ is an integer, it is known by the work on Artin's primitive root conjecture that the order is "almost always…

Using techniques of algebraic and analytic number theory, we resolve a question on monoid rings posed by Kulosman, et. al., under the assumption of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH). Specifically, we show that under an appropriate…

This work concerns Artin's Conjecture on primitive roots and related problems for number fields. Let $K$ be a number field and let $W_1$ to $W_n$ be finitely generated subgroups of $K^\times$ of positive rank. We consider the index map,…

Artin's Conjecture on Primitive Roots states that a non-square nonunit integer $a$ is a primitive root modulo $p$ for the positive proportion of $p$. This conjecture remains open, but on average, there are many results due to P. J.…

Let $N_a(x)$ denote the number of primes up to $x$ for which the integer $a$ is a primitive root. We show that $N_a(x)$ satisfies the asymptotic predicted by Artin's conjecture for almost all $1\le a\le \exp((\log \log x)^2)$. This improves…

We study the number of primes with a given primitive root and in an arithmetic progression under the assumption of a suitable form of the generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Previous work of Lenstra, Moree and Stevenhagen has given asymptotics…

The first purpose of our paper is to show how Hooley's celebrated method leading to his conditional proof of the Artin conjecture on primitive roots can be combined with the Hardy-Littlewood circle method. We do so by studying the number of…

Since Hooley's seminal 1967 resolution of Artin's primitive root conjecture under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, numerous variations of the conjecture have been considered. We present a framework generalizing and unifying many…
