Orders of Gauss Periods in Finite Fields.

It is shown that Gauss periods of a special type give an explicit polynomial-time computation of elements of exponentially large multiplicative order in some finite fields. This can be considered as a step towards solving the celebrated problem of finding primitive roots in finite fields in polynomi...
