ABSTRACT

All elements in the cyclic group   are generated by a generator g. The number of generators of  of  , namely   is known to be Euler’s totient function ; however, the average probability of an element being a generator has not been discussed before. Several analytic properties of   have been investigated for a long time. However, it seems that some issues still remain unresolved. In this study, we derive the average probability of an element being a generator using previous classical studies.
