Problem 474: Last Digits of Divisors

Mathematical Foundation

Theorem 1 (CRT decomposition). Since $10^d = 2^d \cdot 5^d$ with $\gcd(2^d, 5^d) = 1$, the condition $k \equiv n! \pmod{10^d}$ is equivalent to

by the Chinese Remainder Theorem.

Proof. This is the standard CRT decomposition for coprime moduli. $\square$

Lemma 1 (Legendre’s formula for factorial valuations). The $p$-adic valuation of $n!$ is

where $s_p(n)$ is the digit sum of $n$ in base $p$.

Proof. Among $\{1, 2, \ldots, n\}$, exactly $\lfloor n/p^i \rfloor$ are divisible by $p^i$. Summing over $i$ counts each factor of $p$ in $n!$ exactly once. The closed form follows from the identity $\sum_{i \geq 1} \lfloor n/p^i \rfloor = (n - s_p(n))/(p-1)$. $\square$

Theorem 2 (Character sum formula). Write $n! = 2^a \cdot 5^b \cdot m$ where $\gcd(m, 10) = 1$, with $a = v_2(n!)$ and $b = v_5(n!)$. The number of divisors of $m$ congruent to a target residue $r \pmod{10^d}$ (with $\gcd(r, 10) = 1$) is

where the outer sum ranges over all Dirichlet characters modulo $10^d$.

Proof. The orthogonality relations for Dirichlet characters give

for $\gcd(q, 10^d) = 1$. Summing over all divisors $q$ of $m$ (each of the form $\prod_{p \neq 2,5} p^{c_p}$ with $0 \leq c_p \leq v_p(n!)$) and using multiplicativity of $\chi$:

Lemma 2 (Geometric sum for each prime). For each prime $p \neq 2, 5$ and character $\chi$:

Proof. Standard geometric series formula. $\square$

Theorem 3 (Handling powers of 2 and 5). The full count $f(n, d)$ requires combining the coprime-part count with the constraints on $v_2(k)$ and $v_5(k)$. If $a \geq d$ and $b \geq d$, then $n! \equiv 0 \pmod{10^d}$, and the condition simplifies to $k \equiv 0 \pmod{10^d}$. Otherwise, the valuations of $k$ at 2 and 5 must match those of $n! \bmod 2^d$ and $n! \bmod 5^d$ respectively.

Proof. When $v_2(n!) \geq d$, we have $n! \equiv 0 \pmod{2^d}$, so any divisor $k$ with $v_2(k) \geq d$ automatically satisfies $k \equiv 0 \equiv n! \pmod{2^d}$. When $v_2(n!) < d$, the constraint $k \equiv n! \pmod{2^d}$ forces $v_2(k) = v_2(n!)$ and constrains the odd part of $k$ modulo $2^{d - v_2(n!)}$. The analysis for the prime 5 is analogous. $\square$

Editorial

For n! find divisors whose last d digits match those of n!. Compute S(N, d) = sum over n=1..N of f(n,d), result mod 2^32. We sieve primes up to N. We then precompute Dirichlet characters mod 10^d. Finally, using CRT: characters mod 2^d and mod 5^d.

Pseudocode

Sieve primes up to N
Precompute Dirichlet characters mod 10^d
Using CRT: characters mod 2^d and mod 5^d
For each n from 1 to N
Maintain running exponents v_p(n!) for each prime p
add v_p(n) for each prime p | n
Update exponents: factorize n, add to running totals
Compute target residue r = n! / (2^a * 5^b) mod 10^d
(maintained incrementally)
Evaluate character sum formula
For each character chi mod 10^d:
Compute product over primes p != 2,5 of geometric_sum(chi(p), v_p)
Weight by chi_bar(r)
Average over phi(10^d)
Combine with 2-adic and 5-adic constraints

Complexity Analysis

• Time: $O\!\left(N \cdot \frac{\phi(10^d)}{\log N}\right)$ with optimized character evaluation. For $N = 10^8$ and $d = 9$, $\phi(10^9) = 4 \cdot 10^8 / 10 = 4 \times 10^8$, so further structural optimizations (factoring the character group, exploiting multiplicativity) are essential to reduce the constant.
• Space: $O(\phi(10^d) + \pi(N))$ for character tables and prime lists. With $\pi(10^8) \approx 5.76 \times 10^6$, this is manageable.

 * Full solution outline for S(10^8, 9) mod 2^32:
 *
 * 1. Sieve all primes up to 10^8.
 * 2. For each n from 1 to N:
 *    a. Compute v2 = v_2(n!), v5 = v_5(n!).
 *    b. Compute the odd-coprime-to-5 residue of n! mod 10^9 incrementally.
 *    c. Use Dirichlet characters mod 10^9 to count divisors of n!/(2^v2 * 5^v5)
 *       that are congruent to the target residue.
 *    d. Combine with choices for powers of 2 and 5.
 * 3. Sum everything mod 2^32.
 *
 * The key identity uses DFT over (Z/10^9 Z)*:
 *   f(n,d) = (1/phi(10^d)) * sum_chi conj(chi(target)) * prod_{p odd, p!=5} sum_{c=0}^{e_p} chi(p^c)
 *
 * This is computationally intensive but feasible with careful optimization.
