The monotone convergence theorem states that if pointwise for measurable functions, then is measurable and , allowing infinity.
Apply it to the partial sums . They are nonnegative, measurable, and increase pointwise to . Finite additivity of the integral and monotone convergence yield
The assumed finite sum of integrals makes integrable. This proves the series-integration rule needed below directly from the stated theorem, without assuming an additional interchange theorem.
A monic quadratic polynomial over a field is irreducible exactly when it has no root in that field. Testing the nine choices of its two coefficients in gives
For clarity, a zero constant term gives a root at zero. Among constant term one, only the zero linear coefficient avoids roots at . Among constant term two, precisely the linear coefficients one and two avoid roots. This exhausts all choices.
Put . Its values at are respectively , so it has no linear factor. If this quartic were reducible, absence of a linear factor would force a factorization into two irreducible quadratics. Division by the three candidates above gives remainders respectively , all nonzero. Thus is an irreducible polynomial.
The quotient by an irreducible polynomial is a field consequently gives a field of elements. Its nonzero elements form a multiplicative group of a finite field of order . In this field, . Successive squaring gives
The latter is not one: otherwise the nonzero polynomial of degree below four would vanish at , contradicting its minimal polynomial. By Lagrange's theorem, . Since five is prime, its order is exactly five. Hence one answer is
Its other nonidentity powers are the remaining primitive fifth roots. It is unnecessary to prove that itself generates the entire multiplicative group.

Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
We have two killer features:
  1. topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculus
    Articles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
    • a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
    • a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
    This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

  2. local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:
    This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
    Figure 5. . You can also edit articles on the Web editor without installing anything locally.
