COMMENTS

More precisely: when there exists k, 0<k<n, such that X^n+X^k+1 is a GF(2)[X] primitive polynomial, negative of the minimum of such k; else minimum value for X=2 of GF(2)[X] polynomials P[X] such that X^n+P[X] is primitive and has the minimum number of terms for a primitive polynomials of degree n. The special encoding of trinomials greatly extends the range of a(n) representable using a given number of bits; for example a(89) = -38 instead of 2^38+1. Applications include maximum-length linear feedback shift registers with efficient implementation in both hardware and software.

EXAMPLE
|
a(10)=-3, representing the GF(2)[X] polynomial X^10+X^3+1, because this degree 10 trinomial is primitive, contrary to X^10+X^1+1, X^10+X^2+1 and X^10+X^2+X^1.

CROSSREFS

Either of 2^n+2^(-a(n))+1 or 2^n+a(n) belongs to A091250. If there exists m such that n = A073726(m), then a(n) = -A074744(m); otherwise a(n) = A132450(n). A132453(n) gives the primitive polynomial corresponding to a(n). Cf. A132448, similar, with no restriction on number of terms. Cf. A132450, similar, with restriction to at most 5 terms. Cf. A132452, similar, with restriction to exactly 5 terms.
