Motivation RSA (Rivest-Shamir-Adleman) is one of the first public-key cryptosystems and is widely used for secure data transmission. In such a cryptosystem, the encryption key is public and is different from the decryption key which is kept secret. If I wanted to comprehend zero knowledge proofs, then understanding the grand-daddy of public-key cryptosystems is a must. Background Maths Exponential Rules 1 $$ \begin{align} \label{eq:exponent_rule} g^{a-b} &= \dfrac{g^a}{g^b} \newline g^{a+b} &= g^a g^b \n...

[AI summary] The text provides an in-depth explanation of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, which states that every non-constant polynomial of degree $ n $ has exactly $ n $ roots in the complex number system, counting multiplicities. It walks through the proof by first establishing that every polynomial has at least one complex root (using the properties of continuous functions and the complex plane), then using polynomial division to factor the polynomial into linear factors, and finally addressing the nature of roots (real vs. complex) and their multiplicities. The text also touches on the conjugate root theorem, which explains why complex roots of polynomials with real coefficients come in conjugate pairs.
