Graphs of difference operators for p-ary sequences

  • Published:
Functional Analysis and Other Mathematics

Abstract

For a given prime p and positive integer n, we consider the graph G n of the difference operator acting on p-ary sequences of length n. We suggest new proofs of some results of V.I. Arnold on the graph G n and the complexity of sequences and obtain new results for the length of a maximal cycle in the general case of p-ary sequences. We also provide estimates for the number of complicated sequences.
