The extension of Theorem B for complete Padovan sequences
The extension of Theorem B for complete Padovan sequences
Let be a prime with , let , , and be the roots of in , and define
N_p=\min\{|\alpha/\beta|,|\beta/\gamma|,|\gamma/\alpha|}.A -sequence is complete when it contains every nonzero element of . A Padovan primitive root is a primitive root satisfying . The extension of Theorem B. The statement of Theorem B remains true without the condition ; equivalently, a -sequence is complete if and only if for all , where is a Padovan primitive root, even when . The condition was used in the supplied theorem, while the paper reports computational and manual verification of the exceptional cases discussed there; the general extension is presented as a belief rather than proved in the supplied passage.
