Basis for Cyclotomic Units for n = 13 (prime)

Note that this basis extends to a universal basis, i.e the basis for d is a subset of the basis for n iff d|n.

v(13,2), v(13,3), v(13,4), v(13,5), v(13,6)

The rank (number of elements in basis) is 5

See Algorithm 2.4 for details

Note that equality is modulo multiplication by an nth unit root.

1: v(13,1) = 1
2: v(13,2) is in basis
3: v(13,3) is in basis
4: v(13,4) is in basis
5: v(13,5) is in basis
6: v(13,6) is in basis
7: v(13,7) = v(13,6)
8: v(13,8) = v(13,5)
9: v(13,9) = v(13,4)
10: v(13,10) = v(13,3)
11: v(13,11) = v(13,2)
12: v(13,12) = 1
The rank is: 5
