On the period of the Naor--Reingold sequence

Published: 01 November 2008 Publication History

Abstract

In this paper we study the period of the Naor-Reingold sequence. We prove that if the parameters used to define the sequence are chosen uniformly at random, then it reaches the maximum period on average.
