Gyarmati, Mauduit and S\'ark\"ozy introduced the \textit{cross-correlation measure} $\Phi_k(\mathcal{F})$ to measure the randomness of families of binary sequences $\mathcal{F} \subset \{-1,1\}^N$. In this paper we study the order of…

We compare ordinary and symmetric variants of two classical measures of pseudorandomness for binary sequences, the $2$-adic complexity and the linear complexity. In the periodic setting, we show that for binary periodic sequences…
Let $1<g_1<\ldots<g_{\varphi(p-1)}<p-1$ be the ordered primitive roots modulo~$p$. We study the pseudorandomness of the binary sequence $(s_n)$ defined by $s_n\equiv g_{n+1}+g_{n+2}\bmod 2$, $n=0,1,\ldots$. In particular, we study the…

In this paper, a new method is presented to compute the 2-adic complexity of pseudo-random sequences. With this method, the 2-adic complexities of all the known sequences with ideal 2-level autocorrelation are uniformly determined. Results…
Three measures of pseudorandomness of finite binary sequences were introduced by Mauduit and S\'ark\"ozy in 1997 and have been studied extensively since then: the normality measure, the well-distribution measure, and the correlation measure…
A class of binary sequences with period $2p$ is constructed using generalized cyclotomic classes, and their linear complexity, minimal polynomial over ${\mathbb{F}_{{q}}}$ as well as 2-adic complexity are determined using Gauss period and…
We first introduce a family of binary $pq^2$-periodic sequences based on the Euler quotients modulo $pq$, where $p$ and $q$ are two distinct odd primes and $p$ divides $q-1$. The minimal polynomials and linear complexities are determined…
The linear complexity is a measure for the unpredictability of a sequence over a finite field and thus for its suitability in cryptography. In 2012, Diem introduced a new figure of merit for cryptographic sequences called expansion…
A set family ${\cal F}$ is $uncrossable$ if $A \cap B,A \cup B \in {\cal F}$ or $A \setminus B,B \setminus A \in {\cal F}$ for any $A,B \in {\cal F}$. A classic result of Williamson, Goemans, Mihail, and Vazirani [STOC 1993:708-717] states…
Pursley and Sarwate established a lower bound on a combined measure of autocorrelation and crosscorrelation for a pair $(f,g)$ of binary sequences (i.e., sequences with terms in $\{-1,1\}$). If $f$ is a nonzero sequence, then its…
Nonlinear complexity is an important measure for assessing the randomness of sequences. In this paper we investigate how circular shifts affect the nonlinear complexities of finite-length binary sequences and then reveal a more explicit…
