Improved average and almost-all bounds for G(n)

Abstract

In this paper we study the least positive integer G(n) such that the integers a≤ G(n) with (a,n)=1 generate (ℤ/nℤ)×. We prove that, for every ε>0, ∑n≤ xG(n)≪ε x(log x)8/3+ε, improving the previously known bound ≪ x(log x)97. We also prove that G(n)≤(log n)2 for almost all n, unconditionally. Thus, for almost all n, we obtain the same logarithmic exponent $2$ as in the classical pointwise bound under GRH.

AB  - In this paper we study the least positive integer G(n) such that the integers a≤ G(n) with (a,n)=1 generate (ℤ/nℤ)^×. We prove that, for every ε>0, ∑_n≤ xG(n)≪_ε x(log x)^8/3+ε, improving the previously known bound ≪ x(log x)^97. We also prove that G(n)≤(log n)^2 for almost all n, unconditionally. Thus, for almost all n, we obtain the same logarithmic exponent $2$ as in the classical pointwise bound under GRH.
