Talk:P-adic Valuation of Difference of Powers with Coprime Exponent

This result is sufficiently interesting in itself, because it works for all $p$, including $p=2$, whereas there is no version of LTE for $p=2$ under the weak assumption that $2\mid x-y$.

In short, I suggest to put this on its own page. I'm thinking of Not Lifting The Exponent Lemma. This name is not commonly used, but it says what it is. --barto (talk) 15:17, 23 August 2017 (EDT)
