A Finite-State Audit of Chaotic Maps for Image Encryption: Image Fraction, Cyclic Fraction and Seed Diversity
Finite-precision chaotic generators are deterministic finite-state systems whose structure is not established by continuous-domain chaos indicators or by ciphertext statistics. We study a map on (Z/2wZ)d coupled to a Weyl counter and prove that every eventual joint cycle length is divisible by the counter period, while...
