On the Degree Growth in Some Polynomial Dynamical Systems and Nonlinear Pseudorandom Number Generators

In this paper we study a class of dynamical systems generated by iterations of multivariate polynomials and estimate the degreegrowth of these iterations. We use these estimates to bound exponential sums along the orbits of these dynamical systems and show that they admit much stronger estimates than in the general case and thus can be of use for pseudorandom number generation.Comment: Mathematics of Computation (to appear

Iterations of Multivariate Polynomials and Discrepancy of Pseudorandom Numbers

Abstract. In this paper we present an extension of a result in [2] about a discrepancy bound for sequences of s-tuples of successive nonlinear multiple recursive congruential pseudorandom numbers of higher orders. The key of this note is based on linear properties of the iterations of multivariate polynomials.
