Problem

Let $\omega\neq 1$ be a 13th root of unity. Find the remainder when \[\prod_{k=0}^{12}(2-2\omega^k+\omega^{2k})\] is divided by 1000.

Solution 1

\[\prod_{k=0}^{12} \left(2- 2\omega^k + \omega^{2k}\right) = \prod_{k=0}^{12} \left((1 - \omega^k)^2 + 1\right) = \prod_{k=0}^{12} \left((1 + i) - \omega^k)((1 - i) - \omega^k\right)\]

Now, we consider the polynomial $x^{13} - 1$ whose roots are the 13th roots of unity. Taking our rewritten product from $0$ to $12$, we see that both instances of $\omega^k$ cycle through each of the 13th roots. Then, our answer is:

\[((1 + i)^{13} - 1)(1 - i)^{13} - 1)\]

\[= (-64(1 + i) - 1)(-64(1 - i) - 1)\]

\[= (65 + 64i)(65 - 64i)\]

\[= 65^2 + 64^2\]

\[= 8\boxed{\textbf{321}}\]
