In this note, we appropriately generalize Gauss's result so that it becomes equivalent to the general version of Sylvester's result. This generalization of Gauss's result naturally leads us to another proof of Gauss's Lemma and Eisenstein's Lemma for Jacobi symbols. Using our work, we also obtain a new formula for the Jacobi symbols.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-02-16T18:04:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "jacobi symbols", "gausss lemma", "eisensteins lemma", "frobenius coin problem", "fundamental result" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
