Modifications of Markovski quasigroup based crypto-algorithm have been proposed. Some of these modifications are based on the systems of orthogonal n-ary groupoids. T-quasigroups based stream ciphers have been constructed.
This paper presents a quasigroup encryptor that has very good scrambling properties. We show that the output of the encryptor maximizes the output entropy and the encrypted output for constant and random inputs is very similar. The system…

We give a review of some known published applications of quasigroups in cryptology.
In this paper we design a stream cipher that uses the algebraic structure of the multiplicative group $\bbbz_p^*$ (where p is a big prime number used in ElGamal algorithm), by defining a quasigroup of order $p-1$ and by doing quasigroup…
This work introduces a new kind of affine semigroups called $P$-semigroups. Within the framework of $\mathcal C$-semigroups, we define a finite-state automaton associated to them. Moreover, this automaton determines whether a $\mathcal…
Unimodal maps have been broadly used as a base of new encryption strategies. Recently, a stream cipher has been proposed in the literature, whose keystream is basically a symbolic sequence of the (one-parameter) logistic map or of the tent…

A symmetric encryption method based on properties of quasicrystals is proposed. The advantages of the cipher are strict aperiodicity and everywhere discontinuous property as well as the speed of computation, simplicity of implementation and…
A quasi-automatic semigroup is a finitely generated semigroup with a rational set of representatives such that the graph of right multiplication by any generator is a rational relation. A asynchronously automatic semigroup is a…
A quasi-semiregular element in a permutation group is an element that has a unique fixed point and acts semiregularly on the remaining points. Such elements were first studied in the context of automorphisms of graphs and occur naturally in…
A new self-synchronizing stream cipher (SSSC) is proposed based on one-way and nearest neighbor coupled integer maps. Some ideas of spatiotemporal chaos synchronization and chaotic cryptography are applied in this new SSSC system. Several…
We provide explicit identity bases for finite cyclic semigroups.
We introduce the notion of an oriented Steiner quasigroup and develop elements of a relevant algebraic apparatus. The approach is based upon (modified) Schreier-type $f$-extensions for quasigroups (cf. earlier works \cite{S, NSt, NSt2})…
In this paper, we identify many important properties and develop criteria for the existence of subquasigroups in finite quasigroups. Based on these results, we propose an effective method that concludes the nonexistence of subquasigroup of…
We consider the growth, order, and finiteness problems for automaton (semi)groups. We propose new implementations and compare them with the existing ones. As a result of extensive experimentations, we propose some conjectures on the order…
The well-known characterization of two-ended groups says that every two-ended group can be split over finite subgroups which means it is isomorphic to either by a free product with amalgamation $A\ast_C B$ or an HNN-extension $\ast_{\phi}…
We study automaton structures, i.e. groups, monoids and semigroups generated by an automaton, which, in this context, means a deterministic finite-state letter-to-letter transducer. Instead of considering only complete automata, we…
