There was set of optional tasks to do in december given to students by M. Skalba and M. Rotkiewicz on this subject. That was only not-so-obvious problem from this set and it looks very nice, so I simply wanted to know how to solve it :) | |

Add conjecture and evidence that $(l/p)=(l/3)$ is unique

| Jan 17, 2012 at 11:55 | comment | added | Seblis | Well, that was problem given to me by profesor at University - this problem isn't from any contest known to me. Yesterday I only prove that we can find $p$ prime that satisfies $(q_i/p) = a_i$ for finitely many primes $q_i$ and any $a_i\in\{-1, 1\}$. Later my friend finish this prove in the same way as you. Thank you very much for answer. | |
