The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the expression \( (1 + \omega)(1 + \omega^2)(1 + \omega^4)(1 + \omega^8) \ldots \) up to \( 2n \) factors, where \( \omega \) is a complex cube root of unity. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Cube Roots of Unity**: The cube roots of unity are the solutions to the equation \( x^3 = 1 \). They are given by: \[ 1, \quad \omega = e^{2\pi i / 3}, \quad \omega^2 = e^{4\pi i / 3} \] where \( \omega^3 = 1 \) and \( 1 + \omega + \omega^2 = 0 \). 2. **Identifying the Pattern**: We can express the terms in the product: \[ (1 + \omega^k) \text{ for } k = 1, 2, 4, 8, \ldots, 2n \] Notice that \( \omega^3 = 1 \), so the powers of \( \omega \) will repeat every three terms. 3. **Grouping Terms**: We can group the terms based on the periodicity of \( \omega \): - For \( k = 1 \): \( 1 + \omega \) - For \( k = 2 \): \( 1 + \omega^2 \) - For \( k = 3 \): \( 1 + \omega^3 = 1 + 1 = 2 \) Since \( \omega^3 = 1 \), the terms will repeat every three factors. Thus, we can group the terms into sets of three until we reach \( 2n \). 4. **Calculating the Product**: Each group of three contributes: \[ (1 + \omega)(1 + \omega^2)(1 + 1) = (1 + \omega)(1 + \omega^2)(2) \] The product \( (1 + \omega)(1 + \omega^2) \) can be simplified using the identity \( 1 + \omega + \omega^2 = 0 \): \[ (1 + \omega)(1 + \omega^2) = 1 + \omega + \omega^2 + \omega^3 = 1 + 0 + 1 = 1 \] 5. **Final Calculation**: Each group of three contributes \( 2 \) (from \( 1 + 1 \)) and \( 1 \) from \( (1 + \omega)(1 + \omega^2) \): \[ \text{Total product} = 1 \cdot 2^{\frac{2n}{3}} \text{ (number of complete groups of 3)} \] Therefore, the total number of terms \( 2n \) can be divided by 3, leading to: \[ \text{Final value} = 2^{\frac{2n}{3}} \] ### Conclusion: The value of \( (1 + \omega)(1 + \omega^2)(1 + \omega^4)(1 + \omega^8) \ldots \) up to \( 2n \) factors is: \[ \boxed{2^{\frac{2n}{3}}} \]
