Complex number whose real and imaginary parts are both integers
Not to be confused with Gaussian integral.
In number theory, a Gaussian integer is a complex number whose real and imaginary parts are both integers. The Gaussian integers, with ordinary addition and multiplication of complex numbers, form an integral domain, usually written as or [1]
Gaussian integers share many properties with integers: they form a Euclidean domain, and have thus a Euclidean division and a Euclidean algorithm; this implies unique factorization and many related properties. However, Gaussian integers do not have a total ordering that respects arithmetic.
Gaussian integers are algebraic integers and form the simplest ring of quadratic integers.
Gaussian integers are named after the German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss.
