A note on a theorem of Rotkiewicz
Journal of integer sequences, Tome 18 (2015) no. 3
In 1961, Rotkiewicz presented a generalisation of the well-known fact that $n$ divides $\varphi (a^{n} - 1)$ for all positive integers $n$ and $a > 1$, where $\varphi $ is Euler's totient function. In this note, we extend his result to values of cyclotomic polynomials.
