For fixed integers g and d the distribution of this order over residue classes mod d is considered as p runs over the primes. An overview is given of the most significant of my results on this problem obtained (mainly) in the three part series of papers `On the distribution of the order and index of g (modulo p) over residue classes' I-III (appeared in the Journal of Number Theory, also available from the ArXiv).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-08-18T14:24:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11N37", "11R45", "11N69" ], "keywords": [ "distribution", "residue classes mod", "part series", "smallest positive integer", "number theory" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "AMS", "journal": "Electron.
