We calculate the asymptotic merit factor, under all cyclic rotations of rows and columns, of two families of binary two-dimensional arrays derived from the quadratic character. The arrays in these families have size p x q, where p and q are…
The merit factor of a $\{-1, 1\}$ binary sequence measures the collective smallness of its non-trivial aperiodic autocorrelations. Binary sequences with large merit factor are important in digital communications because they allow the…
The identification of binary sequences with large merit factor (small mean-squared aperiodic autocorrelation) is an old problem of complex analysis and combinatorial optimization, with practical importance in digital communications…
In this paper, we present a computational search for best-known merit factors of longer binary sequences with an odd length. Finding low autocorrelation binary sequences with optimal or suboptimal merit factors is a very difficult…
Pairs of binary sequences formed using linear combinations of multiplicative characters of finite fields are exhibited that, when compared to random sequence pairs, simultaneously achieve significantly lower mean square autocorrelation…
The merit factor problem is of practical importance to manifold domains, such as digital communications engineering, radars, system modulation, system testing, information theory, physics, chemistry. However, the merit factor problem is…
Let $p$ be an odd prime with $2$-adic expansion $\sum_{i=0}^kp_i\cdot2^i$. For a sequence $\underline{a}=(a(t))_{t\ge 0}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{p}$, each $a(t)$ belongs to $\{0,1,\ldots, p-1\}$ and has a unique $2$-adic expansion…
Borwein and Mossinghoff investigated the Rudin-Shapiro-like sequences, which are infinite families of binary sequences, usually represented as polynomials. Each family of Rudin-Shapiro-like sequences is obtained from a starting sequence…
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…
A method for estimating the merit factors of sequences will be provided. The result is also effective in determining the nonexistence of certain infinite collections of cyclic difference sets and cyclic matrices and associated binary…
This paper studies properties of binary runlength-limited sequences with additional constraints on their Hamming weight and/or their number of runs of identical symbols. An algebraic and a probabilistic (entropic) characterization of the…
Let $n$ be a prime power, $r$ be a prime with $r\mid n-1$, and $\varepsilon\in (0,1/2)$. Using the theory of multiplicative character sums and superelliptic curves, we construct new codes over $\mathbb F_r$ having length $n$, relative…
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…
The asymptotic critical exponent measures for a sequence the maximum repetition rate of factors of growing length. The infimum of asymptotic critical exponents of sequences of a certain class is called the asymptotic repetition threshold of…
In this paper, the construction of finite-length binary sequences whose nonlinear complexity is not less than half of the length is investigated. By characterizing the structure of the sequences, an algorithm is proposed to generate all…
In this paper we study some structure properties of primitive weird numbers in terms of their factorization. We give sufficient conditions to ensure that a positive integer is weird. Two algorithms for generating weird numbers having a…
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…
Sequences with low aperiodic autocorrelation are used in communications and remote sensing for synchronization and ranging. The autocorrelation demerit factor of a sequence is the sum of the squared magnitudes of its autocorrelation values…
New generalized cyclotomic binary sequences of period $p^2$ are proposed in this paper, where $p$ is an odd prime. The sequences are almost balanced and their linear complexity is determined. The result shows that the proposed sequences…
We estimate character sums with n!, on average, and individually. These bounds are used to derive new results about various congruences modulo a prime p and obtain new information about the spacings between quadratic nonresidues modulo p.…
