%N Exponent of the multiplicative group G_n:={x+iy: x^2+y^2==1 (mod n); 0 <= x,y < n} where i=sqrt(-1).
%C From _Jianing Song_, Nov 05 2019: (Start)
%C Exponent of the group G is the least e > 0 such that x^e = 1 for every x in G, where 1 is the identity element.
%C Also the exponent of O(2,Z_n) or SO(2,Z_n). O(2,Z_n) is the group of 2 X 2 matrices A over Z_n such that A*A^T = E = [1,0;0,1]; SO(2,Z_n) is the group of 2 X 2 matrices A over Z_n such that A*A^T = E = [1,0;0,1] and det(A) = 1. Note that G_n is isomorphic to SO(2,Z_n) by the mapping x+yi <-> [x,y;-y,x]. See A060698 for the group structure of SO(2,Z_n) and A182039 for the group structure of O(2,Z_n). (End)
