Random Sequences Based on the Divisor Pairs Function
This addresses randomness generation for applications in cryptography and key distribution, but appears incremental as it builds on ancient antecedents.
The paper tackled the randomness properties of a function based on divisor pairs of natural numbers, showing it is aperiodic and has excellent autocorrelation properties.
This paper investigates the randomness properties of a function of the divisor pairs of a natural number. This function, the antecedents of which go to very ancient times, has randomness properties that can find applications in cryptography, key distribution, and other problems of computer science. It is shown that the function is aperiodic and it has excellent autocorrelation properties.
