Oct 19, 2023 at 18:44 comment added synack How come $m \pmod p=0$ in the second part of the proof? Isn’t RSA defined in the multiplicative group $\mathbb Z_n$? $0$ is not in $\mathbb Z_n$…

Mar 20, 2018 at 21:30 comment added fgrieu With $p$ and $q$ prime, $\gcd(p,q)=1$ is the same as $p≠q$. It is unclear if the proof hypothesize $p$ and $q$ prime. If it does not, it is incorrect in the fragment "Because $\gcd(m, N) \neq 1$ one between $\gcd(m, N) = p$, and $\gcd(m, N) = q$ must stand true". Further, there's a notation problem: $m\cdot(m^{\phi(N)})^k=m \bmod N$ is simply wrong when we take $\bmod\;$ to be the operator "remainder of the Euclidean division". We have $m\cdot(m^{\phi(N)})^k\equiv m\pmod N$, or $m=m \cdot(m^{\phi(N)})^k\bmod N$.
