A Dual-Radix Approach to Steiner's 1-Cycle Theorem

Number Theory 2019-05-21 v3

Abstract

This article presents a variety of algebraic proofs of Steiner's 11-Cycle Theorem. It also demonstrates that, under an exponential upper-bound on the iterates, the only 11-cycles in the (accelerated) 3x13x-1 dynamical system are (1)(1) and (5,7)(5,7).
