     So, by taking $a^{p-2} \cdot a \equiv 1 \pmod p$, where $a^{p-2} \equiv a^{-1} \pmod p$ (the inverse modulo p), we see that $a^p \equiv a \pmod p, \forall a \in \mathbb{Z}$, so $a^p - a$ is a multiple of $p$.

+    ~\\\emph{Relation to Lagrange's theorem:}\\
+    Let $G = \mathbb{Z}_p$, and let $H$ be the multiplicative subgroup of $G$ generated by $a$ (ie. $H = \{ 1, a, a^2, \ldots \}$). The order of $H$ ($h = |H|$), is also the order of $a$ (ie. smallest $n>1$ s.t. $a^n=1~mod~p$).

+  $div(R(x) \cdot S(x)) = div( R(x)) + div( S(x))$, where $R(x), S(x)$ are rational functions.
+  \\proof:\\
+  \emph{Norm} of $f$: $N_f = f \cdot \overline{f}$, and we know that $N_{fg} = N_f \cdot N_g~\forall~\mathbb{K}[E]$,\\
+  then $$deg(f) = deg_x(N_f)$$\\
+  and $$deg(f \cdot g) = deg(f) + deg(g)$$
+
+  Proof:
+  $$deg(f \cdot g) = deg_x(N_{fg}) = deg_x(N_f \cdot N_g)$$
+  $$= deg_x(N_f) + deg_x(N_g) = deg(f) + deg(g)$$
+
+  So, $\forall P \in E(\mathbb{K}),~ ord_P(rs) = ord_P(r) + ord_P(s)$.\\
+  As $div(r) = \sum_{P\in E(\mathbb{K})} ord_P(r)[P]$, $div(s) = \sum ord_P(s)[P]$.
+
+  So,
+  $$div(rs) = \sum ord_P(rs)[P]$$
+  $$= \sum ord_P(r)[P] + \sum ord_P(s)[P] = div(r) + div(s)$$

+\begin{solution}{6.31}
+  $$e_m(P, Q) = e_m(Q, P)^{-1} \forall P, Q \in E[m]$$
+  Proof:
+  We know that $e_m(P, P) = 1$, so:
+  $$1 = e_m(P+Q, P+Q) = e_m(P, P) \cdot e_m(P, Q) \cdot e_m(Q, P) \cdot e_m(Q, Q)$$
+
+  and we know that $e_m(P, P) = 1$, then we have:
+  $$1 = e_m(P, Q) \cdot e_m(Q, P)$$
+  $$\Longrightarrow e_m(P, Q) = e_m(Q, P)^{-1}$$
