37 \title{Efficient Generation of Pseudo-Random Numbers based on Chaotic Iterations
41 \author{Jacques M. Bahi, Rapha\"{e}l Couturier, and Christophe
42 Guyeux\thanks{Authors in alphabetic order}}
50 \section{Introduction}
52 Random numbers are used in many scientific applications and simulations. On
53 finite state machines, as computers, it is not possible to generate random
54 numbers but only pseudo-random numbers. In practice, a good pseudo-random number
55 generator (PRNG) needs to verify some features to be used by scientists. It is
56 important to be able to generate pseudo-random numbers efficiently, the
57 generation needs to be reproducible and a PRNG needs to satisfy many usual
58 statistical properties. Finally, from our point a view, it is essential to prove
59 that a PRNG is chaotic. Devaney~\cite{Devaney} proposed a common mathematical
60 formulation of chaotic dynamical systems. Concerning the statistical tests,
61 TestU01the is the best-known public-domain statistical testing packages. So we
62 use it for all our PRNGs, especially the {\it BigCrush} which is based on the largest
65 In a previous work~\cite{bgw09:ip} we have proposed a new familly of chaotic
66 PRNG based on chaotic iterations (IC). In this paper we propose a faster
67 version which is also proven to be chaotic with the Devaney formulation.
69 Although graphics processing units (GPU) was initially designed to accelerate
70 the manipulation of images, they are nowadays commonly used in many scientific
71 applications. Therefore, it is important to be able to generate pseudo-random
72 numbers inside a GPU when a scientific application runs in a GPU. That is why we
73 also provide an efficient PRNG for GPU respecting based on IC.

82 \section{Related works on GPU based PRNGs}
84 In the litterature many authors have work on defining GPU based PRNGs. We do not
85 want to be exhaustive and we just give the most significant works from our point
88 In \cite{Pang:2008:cec}, the authors define a PRNG based on cellular automata
89 which does not require high precision integer arithmetics nor bitwise
90 operations. There is no mention of statistical tests nor proof that this PRNG is
91 chaotic. Concerning the speed of generation, they can generate about 3200000
92 random numbers per seconds on a GeForce 7800 GTX GPU (which is quite old now).
94 In \cite{ZRKB10}, the authors propose different versions of efficient GPU PRNGs
95 based on Lagged Fibonacci, Hybrid Taus or Hybrid Taus. They have used these
96 PRNGs for Langevin simulations of biomolecules fully implemented on GPU.
98 \section{Basic Recalls}
99 \label{section:BASIC RECALLS}
100 This section is devoted to basic definitions and terminologies in the fields of
101 topological chaos and chaotic iterations.
102 \subsection{Devaney's Chaotic Dynamical Systems}
104 In the sequel $S^{n}$ denotes the $n^{th}$ term of a sequence $S$ and $V_{i}$
105 denotes the $i^{th}$ component of a vector $V$. $f^{k}=f\circ ...\circ f$
106 is for the $k^{th}$ composition of a function $f$. Finally, the following
107 notation is used: $\llbracket1;N\rrbracket=\{1,2,\hdots,N\}$.
110 Consider a topological space $(\mathcal{X},\tau)$ and a continuous function $f :
111 \mathcal{X} \rightarrow \mathcal{X}$.
114 $f$ is said to be \emph{topologically transitive} if, for any pair of open sets
115 $U,V \subset \mathcal{X}$, there exists $k>0$ such that $f^k(U) \cap V \neq
120 An element $x$ is a \emph{periodic point} for $f$ of period $n\in \mathds{N}^*$
121 if $f^{n}(x)=x$.% The set of periodic points of $f$ is denoted $Per(f).$
125 $f$ is said to be \emph{regular} on $(\mathcal{X}, \tau)$ if the set of periodic
126 points for $f$ is dense in $\mathcal{X}$: for any point $x$ in $\mathcal{X}$,
127 any neighborhood of $x$ contains at least one periodic point (without
128 necessarily the same period).
132 \begin{definition}[Devaney's formulation of chaos~\cite{Devaney}]
133 $f$ is said to be \emph{chaotic} on $(\mathcal{X},\tau)$ if $f$ is regular and
134 topologically transitive.
137 The chaos property is strongly linked to the notion of ``sensitivity'', defined
138 on a metric space $(\mathcal{X},d)$ by:
141 \label{sensitivity} $f$ has \emph{sensitive dependence on initial conditions}
142 if there exists $\delta >0$ such that, for any $x\in \mathcal{X}$ and any
143 neighborhood $V$ of $x$, there exist $y\in V$ and $n > 0$ such that
144 $d\left(f^{n}(x), f^{n}(y)\right) >\delta $.
146 $\delta$ is called the \emph{constant of sensitivity} of $f$.
149 Indeed, Banks \emph{et al.} have proven in~\cite{Banks92} that when $f$ is
150 chaotic and $(\mathcal{X}, d)$ is a metric space, then $f$ has the property of
151 sensitive dependence on initial conditions (this property was formerly an
152 element of the definition of chaos). To sum up, quoting Devaney
153 in~\cite{Devaney}, a chaotic dynamical system ``is unpredictable because of the
154 sensitive dependence on initial conditions. It cannot be broken down or
155 simplified into two subsystems which do not interact because of topological
156 transitivity. And in the midst of this random behavior, we nevertheless have an
157 element of regularity''. Fundamentally different behaviors are consequently
158 possible and occur in an unpredictable way.
162 \subsection{Chaotic Iterations}
163 \label{sec:chaotic iterations}
166 Let us consider a \emph{system} with a finite number $\mathsf{N} \in
167 \mathds{N}^*$ of elements (or \emph{cells}), so that each cell has a
168 Boolean \emph{state}. Having $\mathsf{N}$ Boolean values for these
169 cells leads to the definition of a particular \emph{state of the
170 system}. A sequence which elements belong to $\llbracket 1;\mathsf{N}
171 \rrbracket $ is called a \emph{strategy}. The set of all strategies is
172 denoted by $\llbracket 1, \mathsf{N} \rrbracket^\mathds{N}.$
175 \label{Def:chaotic iterations}
176 The set $\mathds{B}$ denoting $\{0,1\}$, let
177 $f:\mathds{B}^{\mathsf{N}}\longrightarrow \mathds{B}^{\mathsf{N}}$ be
178 a function and $S\in \llbracket 1, \mathsf{N} \rrbracket^\mathds{N}$ be a ``strategy''. The so-called
179 \emph{chaotic iterations} are defined by $x^0\in
180 \mathds{B}^{\mathsf{N}}$ and
182 \forall n\in \mathds{N}^{\ast }, \forall i\in
183 \llbracket1;\mathsf{N}\rrbracket ,x_i^n=\left\{
185 x_i^{n-1} & \text{ if }S^n\neq i \\
186 \left(f(x^{n-1})\right)_{S^n} & \text{ if }S^n=i.
191 In other words, at the $n^{th}$ iteration, only the $S^{n}-$th cell is
192 \textquotedblleft iterated\textquotedblright . Note that in a more
193 general formulation, $S^n$ can be a subset of components and
194 $\left(f(x^{n-1})\right)_{S^{n}}$ can be replaced by
195 $\left(f(x^{k})\right)_{S^{n}}$, where $k<n$, describing for example,
196 delays transmission~\cite{Robert1986,guyeux10}. Finally, let us remark that
197 the term ``chaotic'', in the name of these iterations, has \emph{a
198 priori} no link with the mathematical theory of chaos, presented above.
201 Let us now recall how to define a suitable metric space where chaotic iterations
202 are continuous. For further explanations, see, e.g., \cite{guyeux10}.
204 Let $\delta $ be the \emph{discrete Boolean metric}, $\delta
205 (x,y)=0\Leftrightarrow x=y.$ Given a function $f$, define the function:
208 F_{f}: & \llbracket1;\mathsf{N}\rrbracket\times \mathds{B}^{\mathsf{N}} &
209 \longrightarrow & \mathds{B}^{\mathsf{N}} \\
210 & (k,E) & \longmapsto & \left( E_{j}.\delta (k,j)+f(E)_{k}.\overline{\delta
211 (k,j)}\right) _{j\in \llbracket1;\mathsf{N}\rrbracket},%
214 \noindent where + and . are the Boolean addition and product operations.
215 Consider the phase space:
217 \mathcal{X} = \llbracket 1 ; \mathsf{N} \rrbracket^\mathds{N} \times
218 \mathds{B}^\mathsf{N},
220 \noindent and the map defined on $\mathcal{X}$:
222 G_f\left(S,E\right) = \left(\sigma(S), F_f(i(S),E)\right), \label{Gf}
224 \noindent where $\sigma$ is the \emph{shift} function defined by $\sigma
225 (S^{n})_{n\in \mathds{N}}\in \llbracket 1, \mathsf{N} \rrbracket^\mathds{N}\longrightarrow (S^{n+1})_{n\in
226 \mathds{N}}\in \llbracket 1, \mathsf{N} \rrbracket^\mathds{N}$ and $i$ is the \emph{initial function}
227 $i:(S^{n})_{n\in \mathds{N}} \in \llbracket 1, \mathsf{N} \rrbracket^\mathds{N}\longrightarrow S^{0}\in \llbracket
228 1;\mathsf{N}\rrbracket$. Then the chaotic iterations proposed in
229 Definition \ref{Def:chaotic iterations} can be described by the following iterations:
233 X^0 \in \mathcal{X} \\
239 With this formulation, a shift function appears as a component of chaotic
240 iterations. The shift function is a famous example of a chaotic
241 map~\cite{Devaney} but its presence is not sufficient enough to claim $G_f$ as
243 To study this claim, a new distance between two points $X = (S,E), Y =
244 (\check{S},\check{E})\in
245 \mathcal{X}$ has been introduced in \cite{guyeux10} as follows:
247 d(X,Y)=d_{e}(E,\check{E})+d_{s}(S,\check{S}),
253 \displaystyle{d_{e}(E,\check{E})} & = & \displaystyle{\sum_{k=1}^{\mathsf{N}%
254 }\delta (E_{k},\check{E}_{k})}, \\
255 \displaystyle{d_{s}(S,\check{S})} & = & \displaystyle{\dfrac{9}{\mathsf{N}}%
256 \sum_{k=1}^{\infty }\dfrac{|S^k-\check{S}^k|}{10^{k}}}.%
262 This new distance has been introduced to satisfy the following requirements.
264 \item When the number of different cells between two systems is increasing, then
265 their distance should increase too.
266 \item In addition, if two systems present the same cells and their respective
267 strategies start with the same terms, then the distance between these two points
268 must be small because the evolution of the two systems will be the same for a
269 while. Indeed, the two dynamical systems start with the same initial condition,
270 use the same update function, and as strategies are the same for a while, then
271 components that are updated are the same too.
273 The distance presented above follows these recommendations. Indeed, if the floor
274 value $\lfloor d(X,Y)\rfloor $ is equal to $n$, then the systems $E, \check{E}$
275 differ in $n$ cells ($d_e$ is indeed the Hamming distance). In addition, $d(X,Y) - \lfloor d(X,Y) \rfloor $ is a
276 measure of the differences between strategies $S$ and $\check{S}$. More
277 precisely, this floating part is less than $10^{-k}$ if and only if the first
278 $k$ terms of the two strategies are equal. Moreover, if the $k^{th}$ digit is
279 nonzero, then the $k^{th}$ terms of the two strategies are different.
280 The impact of this choice for a distance will be investigate at the end of the document.
282 Finally, it has been established in \cite{guyeux10} that,
285 Let $f$ be a map from $\mathds{B}^\mathsf{N}$ to itself. Then $G_{f}$ is continuous in
286 the metric space $(\mathcal{X},d)$.
289 The chaotic property of $G_f$ has been firstly established for the vectorial
290 Boolean negation $f(x_1,\hdots, x_\mathsf{N}) = (\overline{x_1},\hdots, \overline{x_\mathsf{N}})$ \cite{guyeux10}. To obtain a characterization, we have secondly
291 introduced the notion of asynchronous iteration graph recalled bellow.
293 Let $f$ be a map from $\mathds{B}^\mathsf{N}$ to itself. The
294 {\emph{asynchronous iteration graph}} associated with $f$ is the
295 directed graph $\Gamma(f)$ defined by: the set of vertices is
296 $\mathds{B}^\mathsf{N}$; for all $x\in\mathds{B}^\mathsf{N}$ and
297 $i\in \llbracket1;\mathsf{N}\rrbracket$,
298 the graph $\Gamma(f)$ contains an arc from $x$ to $F_f(i,x)$.
299 The relation between $\Gamma(f)$ and $G_f$ is clear: there exists a
300 path from $x$ to $x'$ in $\Gamma(f)$ if and only if there exists a
301 strategy $s$ such that the parallel iteration of $G_f$ from the
302 initial point $(s,x)$ reaches the point $x'$.
304 We have finally proven in \cite{bcgr11:ip} that,
308 \label{Th:Caractérisation des IC chaotiques}
309 Let $f:\mathds{B}^\mathsf{N}\to\mathds{B}^\mathsf{N}$. $G_f$ is chaotic (according to Devaney)
310 if and only if $\Gamma(f)$ is strongly connected.
313 This result of chaos has lead us to study the possibility to build a
314 pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) based on the chaotic iterations.
315 As $G_f$, defined on the domain $\llbracket 1 ; \mathsf{N} \rrbracket^{\mathds{N}}
316 \times \mathds{B}^\mathsf{N}$, is build from Boolean networks $f : \mathds{B}^\mathsf{N}
317 \rightarrow \mathds{B}^\mathsf{N}$, we can preserve the theoretical properties on $G_f$
318 during implementations (due to the discrete nature of $f$). It is as if
319 $\mathds{B}^\mathsf{N}$ represents the memory of the computer whereas $\llbracket 1 ; \mathsf{N}
320 \rrbracket^{\mathds{N}}$ is its input stream (the seeds, for instance).
322 \section{Application to Pseudo-Randomness}
324 \subsection{A First Pseudo-Random Number Generator}
326 We have proposed in~\cite{bgw09:ip} a new family of generators that receives
327 two PRNGs as inputs. These two generators are mixed with chaotic iterations,
328 leading thus to a new PRNG that improves the statistical properties of each
329 generator taken alone. Furthermore, our generator
330 possesses various chaos properties that none of the generators used as input
333 \begin{algorithm}[h!]
335 \KwIn{a function $f$, an iteration number $b$, an initial configuration $x^0$
337 \KwOut{a configuration $x$ ($n$ bits)}
339 $k\leftarrow b + \textit{XORshift}(b)$\;
342 $s\leftarrow{\textit{XORshift}(n)}$\;
343 $x\leftarrow{F_f(s,x)}$\;
347 \caption{PRNG with chaotic functions}
351 \begin{algorithm}[h!]
352 \KwIn{the internal configuration $z$ (a 32-bit word)}
353 \KwOut{$y$ (a 32-bit word)}
354 $z\leftarrow{z\oplus{(z\ll13)}}$\;
355 $z\leftarrow{z\oplus{(z\gg17)}}$\;
356 $z\leftarrow{z\oplus{(z\ll5)}}$\;
360 \caption{An arbitrary round of \textit{XORshift} algorithm}
368 This generator is synthesized in Algorithm~\ref{CI Algorithm}.
369 It takes as input: a function $f$;
370 an integer $b$, ensuring that the number of executed iterations is at least $b$
371 and at most $2b+1$; and an initial configuration $x^0$.
372 It returns the new generated configuration $x$. Internally, it embeds two
373 \textit{XORshift}$(k)$ PRNGs \cite{Marsaglia2003} that returns integers
374 uniformly distributed
375 into $\llbracket 1 ; k \rrbracket$.
376 \textit{XORshift} is a category of very fast PRNGs designed by George Marsaglia,
377 which repeatedly uses the transform of exclusive or (XOR, $\oplus$) on a number
378 with a bit shifted version of it. This PRNG, which has a period of
379 $2^{32}-1=4.29\times10^9$, is summed up in Algorithm~\ref{XORshift}. It is used
380 in our PRNG to compute the strategy length and the strategy elements.
383 We have proven in \cite{bcgr11:ip} that,
385 Let $f: \mathds{B}^{n} \rightarrow \mathds{B}^{n}$, $\Gamma(f)$ its
386 iteration graph, $\check{M}$ its adjacency
387 matrix and $M$ a $n\times n$ matrix defined as in the previous lemma.
388 If $\Gamma(f)$ is strongly connected, then
389 the output of the PRNG detailed in Algorithm~\ref{CI Algorithm} follows
390 a law that tends to the uniform distribution
391 if and only if $M$ is a double stochastic matrix.
394 This former generator as successively passed various batteries of statistical tests, as the NIST tests~\cite{bcgr11:ip}.
396 \subsection{Improving the Speed of the Former Generator}
398 Instead of updating only one cell at each iteration, we can try to choose a
399 subset of components and to update them together. Such an attempt leads
400 to a kind of merger of the two sequences used in Algorithm
401 \ref{CI Algorithm}. When the updating function is the vectorial negation,
402 this algorithm can be rewritten as follows:
407 x^0 \in \llbracket 0, 2^\mathsf{N}-1 \rrbracket, S \in \llbracket 0, 2^\mathsf{N}-1 \rrbracket^\mathds{N} \\
408 \forall n \in \mathds{N}^*, x^n = x^{n-1} \oplus S^n,
411 \label{equation Oplus}
413 where $\oplus$ is for the bitwise exclusive or between two integers.
414 This rewritten can be understood as follows. The $n-$th term $S^n$ of the
415 sequence $S$, which is an integer of $\mathsf{N}$ binary digits, presents
416 the list of cells to update in the state $x^n$ of the system (represented
417 as an integer having $\mathsf{N}$ bits too). More precisely, the $k-$th
418 component of this state (a binary digit) changes if and only if the $k-$th
419 digit in the binary decomposition of $S^n$ is 1.
421 The single basic component presented in Eq.~\ref{equation Oplus} is of
422 ordinary use as a good elementary brick in various PRNGs. It corresponds
423 to the following discrete dynamical system in chaotic iterations:
426 \forall n\in \mathds{N}^{\ast }, \forall i\in
427 \llbracket1;\mathsf{N}\rrbracket ,x_i^n=\left\{
429 x_i^{n-1} & \text{ if } i \notin \mathcal{S}^n \\
430 \left(f(x^{n-1})\right)_{S^n} & \text{ if }i \in \mathcal{S}^n.
434 where $f$ is the vectorial negation and $\forall n \in \mathds{N}$,
435 $\mathcal{S}^n \subset \llbracket 1, \mathsf{N} \rrbracket$ is such that
436 $k \in \mathcal{S}^n$ if and only if the $k-$th digit in the binary
437 decomposition of $S^n$ is 1. Such chaotic iterations are more general
438 than the ones presented in Definition \ref{Def:chaotic iterations} for
439 the fact that, instead of updating only one term at each iteration,
440 we select a subset of components to change.
443 Obviously, replacing Algorithm~\ref{CI Algorithm} by
444 Equation~\ref{equation Oplus}, possible when the iteration function is
445 the vectorial negation, leads to a speed improvement. However, proofs
446 of chaos obtained in~\cite{bg10:ij} have been established
447 only for chaotic iterations of the form presented in Definition
448 \ref{Def:chaotic iterations}. The question is now to determine whether the
449 use of more general chaotic iterations to generate pseudo-random numbers
450 faster, does not deflate their topological chaos properties.
452 \subsection{Proofs of Chaos of the General Formulation of the Chaotic Iterations}
454 Let us consider the discrete dynamical systems in chaotic iterations having
458 \forall n\in \mathds{N}^{\ast }, \forall i\in
459 \llbracket1;\mathsf{N}\rrbracket ,x_i^n=\left\{
461 x_i^{n-1} & \text{ if } i \notin \mathcal{S}^n \\
462 \left(f(x^{n-1})\right)_{S^n} & \text{ if }i \in \mathcal{S}^n.
467 In other words, at the $n^{th}$ iteration, only the cells whose id is
468 contained into the set $S^{n}$ are iterated.
470 Let us now rewrite these general chaotic iterations as usual discrete dynamical
471 system of the form $X^{n+1}=f(X^n)$ on an ad hoc metric space. Such a formulation
472 is required in order to study the topological behavior of the system.
474 Let us introduce the following function:
477 \chi: & \llbracket 1; \mathsf{N} \rrbracket \times \mathcal{P}\left(\llbracket 1; \mathsf{N} \rrbracket\right) & \longrightarrow & \mathds{B}\\
478 & (i,X) & \longmapsto & \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} 0 & \textrm{if }i \notin X, \\ 1 & \textrm{if }i \in X, \end{array}\right.
481 where $\mathcal{P}\left(X\right)$ is for the powerset of the set $X$, that is, $Y \in \mathcal{P}\left(X\right) \Longleftrightarrow Y \subset X$.
483 Given a function $f:\mathds{B}^\mathsf{N} \longrightarrow \mathds{B}^\mathsf{N} $, define the function:
486 F_{f}: & \mathcal{P}\left(\llbracket1;\mathsf{N}\rrbracket \right) \times \mathds{B}^{\mathsf{N}} &
487 \longrightarrow & \mathds{B}^{\mathsf{N}} \\
488 & (P,E) & \longmapsto & \left( E_{j}.\chi (j,P)+f(E)_{j}.\overline{\chi
489 (j,P)}\right) _{j\in \llbracket1;\mathsf{N}\rrbracket},%
492 where + and . are the Boolean addition and product operations, and $\overline{x}$
493 is the negation of the Boolean $x$.
494 Consider the phase space:
496 \mathcal{X} = \mathcal{P}\left(\llbracket 1 ; \mathsf{N} \rrbracket\right)^\mathds{N} \times
497 \mathds{B}^\mathsf{N},
499 \noindent and the map defined on $\mathcal{X}$:
501 G_f\left(S,E\right) = \left(\sigma(S), F_f(i(S),E)\right), \label{Gf}
503 \noindent where $\sigma$ is the \emph{shift} function defined by $\sigma
504 (S^{n})_{n\in \mathds{N}}\in \mathcal{P}\left(\llbracket 1 ; \mathsf{N} \rrbracket\right)^\mathds{N}\longrightarrow (S^{n+1})_{n\in
505 \mathds{N}}\in \mathcal{P}\left(\llbracket 1 ; \mathsf{N} \rrbracket\right)^\mathds{N}$ and $i$ is the \emph{initial function}
506 $i:(S^{n})_{n\in \mathds{N}} \in \mathcal{P}\left(\llbracket 1 ; \mathsf{N} \rrbracket\right)^\mathds{N}\longrightarrow S^{0}\in \mathcal{P}\left(\llbracket 1 ; \mathsf{N} \rrbracket\right)$.
507 Then the general chaotic iterations defined in Equation \ref{general CIs} can
508 be described by the following discrete dynamical system:
512 X^0 \in \mathcal{X} \\
518 Another time, a shift function appears as a component of these general chaotic
521 To study the Devaney's chaos property, a distance between two points
522 $X = (S,E), Y = (\check{S},\check{E})$ of $\mathcal{X}$ must be defined.
525 d(X,Y)=d_{e}(E,\check{E})+d_{s}(S,\check{S}),
532 \displaystyle{d_{e}(E,\check{E})} & = & \displaystyle{\sum_{k=1}^{\mathsf{N}%
533 }\delta (E_{k},\check{E}_{k})}\textrm{ is another time the Hamming distance}, \\
534 \displaystyle{d_{s}(S,\check{S})} & = & \displaystyle{\dfrac{9}{\mathsf{N}}%
535 \sum_{k=1}^{\infty }\dfrac{|S^k\Delta {S}^k|}{10^{k}}}.%
539 where $|X|$ is the cardinality of a set $X$ and $A\Delta B$ is for the symmetric difference, defined for sets A, B as
540 $A\,\Delta\,B = (A \setminus B) \cup (B \setminus A)$.
544 The function $d$ defined in Eq.~\ref{nouveau d} is a metric on $\mathcal{X}$.
548 $d_e$ is the Hamming distance. We will prove that $d_s$ is a distance
549 too, thus $d$ will be a distance as sum of two distances.
551 \item Obviously, $d_s(S,\check{S})\geqslant 0$, and if $S=\check{S}$, then
552 $d_s(S,\check{S})=0$. Conversely, if $d_s(S,\check{S})=0$, then
553 $\forall k \in \mathds{N}, |S^k\Delta {S}^k|=0$, and so $\forall k, S^k=\check{S}^k$.
554 \item $d_s$ is symmetric
555 ($d_s(S,\check{S})=d_s(\check{S},S)$) due to the commutative property
556 of the symmetric difference.
557 \item Finally, $|S \Delta S''| = |(S \Delta \varnothing) \Delta S''|= |S \Delta (S'\Delta S') \Delta S''|= |(S \Delta S') \Delta (S' \Delta S'')|\leqslant |S \Delta S'| + |S' \Delta S''|$,
558 and so for all subsets $S,S',$ and $S''$ of $\llbracket 1, \mathsf{N} \rrbracket$,
559 we have $d_s(S,S'') \leqslant d_e(S,S')+d_s(S',S'')$, and the triangle
560 inequality is obtained.
565 Before being able to study the topological behavior of the general
566 chaotic iterations, we must firstly establish that:
569 For all $f:\mathds{B}^\mathsf{N} \longrightarrow \mathds{B}^\mathsf{N} $, the function $G_f$ is continuous on
570 $\left( \mathcal{X},d\right)$.
575 We use the sequential continuity.
576 Let $(S^n,E^n)_{n\in \mathds{N}}$ be a sequence of the phase space $%
577 \mathcal{X}$, which converges to $(S,E)$. We will prove that $\left(
578 G_{f}(S^n,E^n)\right) _{n\in \mathds{N}}$ converges to $\left(
579 G_{f}(S,E)\right) $. Let us remark that for all $n$, $S^n$ is a strategy,
580 thus, we consider a sequence of strategies (\emph{i.e.}, a sequence of
582 As $d((S^n,E^n);(S,E))$ converges to 0, each distance $d_{e}(E^n,E)$ and $d_{s}(S^n,S)$ converges
583 to 0. But $d_{e}(E^n,E)$ is an integer, so $\exists n_{0}\in \mathds{N},$ $%
584 d_{e}(E^n,E)=0$ for any $n\geqslant n_{0}$.\newline
585 In other words, there exists a threshold $n_{0}\in \mathds{N}$ after which no
586 cell will change its state:
587 $\exists n_{0}\in \mathds{N},n\geqslant n_{0}\Rightarrow E^n = E.$
589 In addition, $d_{s}(S^n,S)\longrightarrow 0,$ so $\exists n_{1}\in %
590 \mathds{N},d_{s}(S^n,S)<10^{-1}$ for all indexes greater than or equal to $%
591 n_{1}$. This means that for $n\geqslant n_{1}$, all the $S^n$ have the same
592 first term, which is $S^0$: $\forall n\geqslant n_{1},S_0^n=S_0.$
594 Thus, after the $max(n_{0},n_{1})^{th}$ term, states of $E^n$ and $E$ are
595 identical and strategies $S^n$ and $S$ start with the same first term.\newline
596 Consequently, states of $G_{f}(S^n,E^n)$ and $G_{f}(S,E)$ are equal,
597 so, after the $max(n_0, n_1)^{th}$ term, the distance $d$ between these two points is strictly less than 1.\newline
598 \noindent We now prove that the distance between $\left(
599 G_{f}(S^n,E^n)\right) $ and $\left( G_{f}(S,E)\right) $ is convergent to
600 0. Let $\varepsilon >0$. \medskip
602 \item If $\varepsilon \geqslant 1$, we see that distance
603 between $\left( G_{f}(S^n,E^n)\right) $ and $\left( G_{f}(S,E)\right) $ is
604 strictly less than 1 after the $max(n_{0},n_{1})^{th}$ term (same state).
606 \item If $\varepsilon <1$, then $\exists k\in \mathds{N},10^{-k}\geqslant
607 \varepsilon > 10^{-(k+1)}$. But $d_{s}(S^n,S)$ converges to 0, so
609 \exists n_{2}\in \mathds{N},\forall n\geqslant
610 n_{2},d_{s}(S^n,S)<10^{-(k+2)},
612 thus after $n_{2}$, the $k+2$ first terms of $S^n$ and $S$ are equal.
614 \noindent As a consequence, the $k+1$ first entries of the strategies of $%
615 G_{f}(S^n,E^n)$ and $G_{f}(S,E)$ are the same ($G_{f}$ is a shift of strategies) and due to the definition of $d_{s}$, the floating part of
616 the distance between $(S^n,E^n)$ and $(S,E)$ is strictly less than $%
617 10^{-(k+1)}\leqslant \varepsilon $.\bigskip \newline
620 \forall \varepsilon >0,\exists N_{0}=max(n_{0},n_{1},n_{2})\in \mathds{N}%
621 ,\forall n\geqslant N_{0},
622 d\left( G_{f}(S^n,E^n);G_{f}(S,E)\right)
623 \leqslant \varepsilon .
625 $G_{f}$ is consequently continuous.
629 It is now possible to study the topological behavior of the general chaotic
630 iterations. We will prove that,
633 \label{t:chaos des general}
634 The general chaotic iterations defined on Equation~\ref{general CIs} satisfy
635 the Devaney's property of chaos.
638 Let us firstly prove the following lemma.
640 \begin{lemma}[Strong transitivity]
642 For all couples $X,Y \in \mathcal{X}$ and any neighborhood $V$ of $X$, we can
643 find $n \in \mathds{N}^*$ and $X' \in V$ such that $G^n(X')=Y$.
647 Let $X=(S,E)$, $\varepsilon>0$, and $k_0 = \lfloor log_{10}(\varepsilon)+1 \rfloor$.
648 Any point $X'=(S',E')$ such that $E'=E$ and $\forall k \leqslant k_0, S'^k=S^k$,
649 are in the open ball $\mathcal{B}\left(X,\varepsilon\right)$. Let us define
650 $\check{X} = \left(\check{S},\check{E}\right)$, where $\check{X}= G^{k_0}(X)$.
651 We denote by $s\subset \llbracket 1; \mathsf{N} \rrbracket$ the set of coordinates
652 that are different between $\check{E}$ and the state of $Y$. Thus each point $X'$ of
653 the form $(S',E')$ where $E'=E$ and $S'$ starts with
654 $(S^0, S^1, \hdots, S^{k_0},s,\hdots)$, verifies the following properties:
656 \item $X'$ is in $\mathcal{B}\left(X,\varepsilon\right)$,
657 \item the state of $G_f^{k_0+1}(X')$ is the state of $Y$.
659 Finally the point $\left(\left(S^0, S^1, \hdots, S^{k_0},s,s^0, s^1, \hdots\right); E\right)$,
660 where $(s^0,s^1, \hdots)$ is the strategy of $Y$, satisfies the properties
661 claimed in the lemma.
664 We can now prove the Theorem~\ref{t:chaos des general}...
666 \begin{proof}[Theorem~\ref{t:chaos des general}]
667 Firstly, strong transitivity implies transitivity.
669 Let $(S,E) \in\mathcal{X}$ and $\varepsilon >0$. To
670 prove that $G_f$ is regular, it is sufficient to prove that
671 there exists a strategy $\tilde S$ such that the distance between
672 $(\tilde S,E)$ and $(S,E)$ is less than $\varepsilon$, and such that
673 $(\tilde S,E)$ is a periodic point.
675 Let $t_1=\lfloor-\log_{10}(\varepsilon)\rfloor$, and let $E'$ be the
676 configuration that we obtain from $(S,E)$ after $t_1$ iterations of
677 $G_f$. As $G_f$ is strongly transitive, there exists a strategy $S'$
678 and $t_2\in\mathds{N}$ such
679 that $E$ is reached from $(S',E')$ after $t_2$ iterations of $G_f$.
681 Consider the strategy $\tilde S$ that alternates the first $t_1$ terms
682 of $S$ and the first $t_2$ terms of $S'$: $$\tilde
683 S=(S_0,\dots,S_{t_1-1},S'_0,\dots,S'_{t_2-1},S_0,\dots,S_{t_1-1},S'_0,\dots,S'_{t_2-1},S_0,\dots).$$ It
684 is clear that $(\tilde S,E)$ is obtained from $(\tilde S,E)$ after
685 $t_1+t_2$ iterations of $G_f$. So $(\tilde S,E)$ is a periodic
686 point. Since $\tilde S_t=S_t$ for $t<t_1$, by the choice of $t_1$, we
687 have $d((S,E),(\tilde S,E))<\epsilon$.
692 \section{Efficient PRNG based on Chaotic Iterations}
694 In order to implement efficiently a PRNG based on chaotic iterations it is
695 possible to improve previous works [ref]. One solution consists in considering
696 that the strategy used contains all the bits for which the negation is
697 achieved out. Then in order to apply the negation on these bits we can simply
698 apply the xor operator between the current number and the strategy. In
699 order to obtain the strategy we also use a classical PRNG.
701 Here is an example with 16-bits numbers showing how the bitwise operations
703 applied. Suppose that $x$ and the strategy $S^i$ are defined in binary mode.
704 Then the following table shows the result of $x$ xor $S^i$.
706 \begin{array}{|cc|cccccccccccccccc|}
708 x &=&1&0&1&1&1&0&1&0&1&0&0&1&0&0&1&0\\
710 S^i &=&0&1&1&0&0&1&1&0&1&1&1&0&0&1&1&1\\

756 x = x^(unsigned int)t2;
757 x = x^(unsigned int)(t1>>32);
758 x = x^(unsigned int)t3;
767 In listing~\ref{algo:seqCIprng} a sequential version of our chaotic iterations
768 based PRNG is presented. The xor operator is represented by \textasciicircum.
769 This function uses three classical 64-bits PRNG: the \texttt{xorshift}, the
770 \texttt{xor128} and the \texttt{xorwow}. In the following, we call them
771 xor-like PRNGSs. These three PRNGs are presented in~\cite{Marsaglia2003}. As
772 each xor-like PRNG used works with 64-bits and as our PRNG works with 32-bits,
773 the use of \texttt{(unsigned int)} selects the 32 least significant bits whereas
774 \texttt{(unsigned int)(t3$>>$32)} selects the 32 most significants bits of the
775 variable \texttt{t}. So to produce a random number realizes 6 xor operations
776 with 6 32-bits numbers produced by 3 64-bits PRNG. This version successes the
777 BigCrush of the TestU01 battery~\cite{LEcuyerS07}.
779 \section{Efficient prng based on chaotic iterations on GPU}
781 In order to benefit from computing power of GPU, a program needs to define
782 independent blocks of threads which can be computed simultaneously. In general,
783 the larger the number of threads is, the more local memory is used and the less
784 branching instructions are used (if, while, ...), the better performance is
785 obtained on GPU. So with algorithm \ref{algo:seqCIprng} presented in the
786 previous section, it is possible to build a similar program which computes PRNG
787 on GPU. In the CUDA [ref] environment, threads have a local identificator,
788 called \texttt{ThreadIdx} relative to the block containing them.
791 \subsection{Naive version for GPU}
793 From the CPU version, it is possible to obtain a quite similar version for GPU.
794 The principe consists in assigning the computation of a PRNG as in sequential to
795 each thread of the GPU. Of course, it is essential that the three xor-like
796 PRNGs used for our computation have different parameters. So we chose them
797 randomly with another PRNG. As the initialisation is performed by the CPU, we
798 have chosen to use the ISAAC PRNG [ref] to initalize all the parameters for the
799 GPU version of our PRNG. The implementation of the three xor-like PRNGs is
800 straightforward as soon as their parameters have been allocated in the GPU
801 memory. Each xor-like PRNGs used works with an internal number $x$ which keeps
802 the last generated random numbers. Other internal variables are also used by the
803 xor-like PRNGs. More precisely, the implementation of the xor128, the xorshift
804 and the xorwow respectively require 4, 5 and 6 unsigned long as internal

822 \caption{main kernel for the chaotic iterations based PRNG GPU naive version}
823 \label{algo:gpu_kernel}
826 Algorithm~\ref{algo:gpu_kernel} presents a naive implementation of PRNG using
827 GPU. According to the available memory in the GPU and the number of threads
828 used simultenaously, the number of random numbers that a thread can generate
829 inside a kernel is limited, i.e. the variable \texttt{n} in
830 algorithm~\ref{algo:gpu_kernel}. For example, if $100,000$ threads are used and
831 if $n=100$\footnote{in fact, we need to add the initial seed (a 32-bits number)}
832 then the memory required to store internals variables of xor-like
833 PRNGs\footnote{we multiply this number by $2$ in order to count 32-bits numbers}
834 and random number of our PRNG is equals to $100,000\times ((4+5+6)\times
835 2+(1+100))=1,310,000$ 32-bits numbers, i.e. about $52$Mb.
837 All the tests performed to pass the BigCrush of TestU01 succeeded. Different
838 number of threads, called \texttt{NumThreads} in our algorithm, have been tested
842 Algorithm~\ref{algo:gpu_kernel} has the advantage to manipulate independent
843 PRNGs, so this version is easily usable on a cluster of computer. The only thing
844 to ensure is to use a single ISAAC PRNG. For this, a simple solution consists in
845 using a master node for the initialization which computes the initial parameters
846 for all the differents nodes involves in the computation.
849 \subsection{Improved version for GPU}
851 As GPU cards using CUDA have shared memory between threads of the same block, it
852 is possible to use this feature in order to simplify the previous algorithm,
853 i.e., using less than 3 xor-like PRNGs. The solution consists in computing only
854 one xor-like PRNG by thread, saving it into shared memory and using the results
855 of some other threads in the same block of threads. In order to define which
856 thread uses the result of which other one, we can use a permutation array which
857 contains the indexes of all threads and for which a permutation has been
858 performed. In Algorithm~\ref{algo:gpu_kernel2}, 2 permutations arrays are used.
859 The variable \texttt{offset} is computed using the value of
860 \texttt{permutation\_size}. Then we can compute \texttt{o1} and \texttt{o2}
861 which represent the indexes of the other threads for which the results are used
862 by the current thread. In the algorithm, we consider that a 64-bits xor-like
863 PRNG is used, that is why both 32-bits parts are used.
865 This version also succeed to the BigCrush batteries of tests.

898 \subsection{Theoretical Evaluation of the Improved Version}
900 A run of Algorithm~\ref{algo:gpu_kernel2} consists in four operations having
901 the form of Equation~\ref{equation Oplus}, which is equivalent to the iterative
902 system of Eq.~\ref{eq:generalIC}. That is, four iterations of the general chaotic
903 iterations are realized between two stored values of the PRNG.
904 To be certain that we are in the framework of Theorem~\ref{t:chaos des general},
905 we must guarantee that this dynamical system iterates on the space
906 $\mathcal{X} = \mathcal{P}\left(\llbracket 1, \mathsf{N} \rrbracket\right)^\mathds{N}\times\mathds{B}^\mathsf{N}$.
907 The left term $x$ obviously belongs into $\mathds{B}^ \mathsf{N}$.
908 To prevent from any flaws of chaotic properties, we must check that each right
909 term, corresponding to terms of the strategies, can possibly be equal to any
910 integer of $\llbracket 1, \mathsf{N} \rrbracket$.
912 Such a result is obvious for the two first lines, as for the xor-like(), all the
913 integers belonging into its interval of definition can occur at each iteration.
914 It can be easily stated for the two last lines by an immediate mathematical
917 Thus Algorithm~\ref{algo:gpu_kernel2} is a concrete realization of the general
918 chaotic iterations presented previously, and for this reason, it satisfies the
919 Devaney's formulation of a chaotic behavior.
921 \section{Experiments}

942 \section{The relativity of disorder}
943 \label{sec:de la relativité du désordre}
945 In the next two sections, we investigate the impact of the choices that have
946 lead to the definitions of measures in Sections \ref{sec:chaotic iterations} and \ref{deuxième def}.
948 \subsection{Impact of the topology's finenesse}
950 Let us firstly introduce the following notations.
953 $\mathcal{X}_\tau$ will denote the topological space
954 $\left(\mathcal{X},\tau\right)$, whereas $\mathcal{V}_\tau (x)$ will be the set
955 of all the neighborhoods of $x$ when considering the topology $\tau$ (or simply
956 $\mathcal{V} (x)$, if there is no ambiguity).
962 \label{Th:chaos et finesse}
963 Let $\mathcal{X}$ a set and $\tau, \tau'$ two topologies on $\mathcal{X}$ s.t.
964 $\tau'$ is finer than $\tau$. Let $f:\mathcal{X} \to \mathcal{X}$, continuous
965 both for $\tau$ and $\tau'$.
967 If $(\mathcal{X}_{\tau'},f)$ is chaotic according to Devaney, then
968 $(\mathcal{X}_\tau,f)$ is chaotic too.
972 Let us firstly establish the transitivity of $(\mathcal{X}_\tau,f)$.
974 Let $\omega_1, \omega_2$ two open sets of $\tau$. Then $\omega_1, \omega_2 \in
975 \tau'$, becaus $\tau'$ is finer than $\tau$. As $f$ is $\tau'-$transitive, we
976 can deduce that $\exists n \in \mathds{N}, \omega_1 \cap f^{(n)}(\omega_2) =
977 \varnothing$. Consequently, $f$ is $\tau-$transitive.
979 Let us now consider the regularity of $(\mathcal{X}_\tau,f)$, \emph{i.e.}, for
980 all $x \in \mathcal{X}$, and for all $\tau-$neighborhood $V$ of $x$, there is a
981 periodic point for $f$ into $V$.
983 Let $x \in \mathcal{X}$ and $V \in \mathcal{V}_\tau (x)$ a $\tau-$neighborhood
984 of $x$. By definition, $\exists \omega \in \tau, x \in \omega \subset V$.
986 But $\tau \subset \tau'$, so $\omega \in \tau'$, and then $V \in
987 \mathcal{V}_{\tau'} (x)$. As $(\mathcal{X}_{\tau'},f)$ is regular, there is a
988 periodic point for $f$ into $V$, and the regularity of $(\mathcal{X}_\tau,f)$ is
992 \subsection{A given system can always be claimed as chaotic}
994 Let $f$ an iteration function on $\mathcal{X}$ having at least a fixed point.
995 Then this function is chaotic (in a certain way):
998 Let $\mathcal{X}$ a nonempty set and $f: \mathcal{X} \to \X$ a function having
999 at least a fixed point.
1000 Then $f$ is $\tau_0-$chaotic, where $\tau_0$ is the trivial (indiscrete)
1006 $f$ is transitive when $\forall \omega, \omega' \in \tau_0 \setminus
1007 \{\varnothing\}, \exists n \in \mathds{N}, f^{(n)}(\omega) \cap \omega' \neq
1009 As $\tau_0 = \left\{ \varnothing, \X \right\}$, this is equivalent to look for
1010 an integer $n$ s.t. $f^{(n)}\left( \X \right) \cap \X \neq \varnothing$. For
1011 instance, $n=0$ is appropriate.
1013 Let us now consider $x \in \X$ and $V \in \mathcal{V}_{\tau_0} (x)$. Then $V =
1014 \mathcal{X}$, so $V$ has at least a fixed point for $f$. Consequently $f$ is
1015 regular, and the result is established.
1021 \subsection{A given system can always be claimed as non-chaotic}
1024 Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a set and $f: \mathcal{X} \to \X$.
1025 If $\X$ is infinite, then $\left( \X_{\tau_\infty}, f\right)$ is not chaotic
1026 (for the Devaney's formulation), where $\tau_\infty$ is the discrete topology.
1030 Let us prove it by contradiction, assuming that $\left(\X_{\tau_\infty},
1031 f\right)$ is both transitive and regular.
1033 Let $x \in \X$ and $\{x\}$ one of its neighborhood. This neighborhood must
1034 contain a periodic point for $f$, if we want that $\left(\X_{\tau_\infty},
1035 f\right)$ is regular. Then $x$ must be a periodic point of $f$.
1037 Let $I_x = \left\{ f^{(n)}(x), n \in \mathds{N}\right\}$. This set is finite
1038 because $x$ is periodic, and $\mathcal{X}$ is infinite, then $\exists y \in
1039 \mathcal{X}, y \notin I_x$.
1041 As $\left(\X_{\tau_\infty}, f\right)$ must be transitive, for all open nonempty
1042 sets $A$ and $B$, an integer $n$ must satisfy $f^{(n)}(A) \cap B \neq
1043 \varnothing$. However $\{x\}$ and $\{y\}$ are open sets and $y \notin I_x
1044 \Rightarrow \forall n, f^{(n)}\left( \{x\} \right) \cap \{y\} = \varnothing$.
1052 \section{Chaos on the order topology}
1054 \subsection{The phase space is an interval of the real line}
1056 \subsubsection{Toward a topological semiconjugacy}
1058 In what follows, our intention is to establish, by using a topological
1059 semiconjugacy, that chaotic iterations over $\mathcal{X}$ can be described as
1060 iterations on a real interval. To do so, we must firstly introduce some
1061 notations and terminologies.
1063 Let $\mathcal{S}_\mathsf{N}$ be the set of sequences belonging into $\llbracket
1064 1; \mathsf{N}\rrbracket$ and $\mathcal{X}_{\mathsf{N}} = \mathcal{S}_\mathsf{N}
1065 \times \B^\mathsf{N}$.
1069 The function $\varphi: \mathcal{S}_{10} \times\mathds{B}^{10} \rightarrow \big[
1070 0, 2^{10} \big[$ is defined by:
1073 \varphi: & \mathcal{X}_{10} = \mathcal{S}_{10} \times\mathds{B}^{10}&
1074 \longrightarrow & \big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[ \\
1075 & (S,E) = \left((S^0, S^1, \hdots ); (E_0, \hdots, E_9)\right) & \longmapsto &
1076 \varphi \left((S,E)\right)
1079 where $\varphi\left((S,E)\right)$ is the real number:
1081 \item whose integral part $e$ is $\displaystyle{\sum_{k=0}^9 2^{9-k} E_k}$, that
1082 is, the binary digits of $e$ are $E_0 ~ E_1 ~ \hdots ~ E_9$.
1083 \item whose decimal part $s$ is equal to $s = 0,S^0~ S^1~ S^2~ \hdots =
1084 \sum_{k=1}^{+\infty} 10^{-k} S^{k-1}.$
1090 $\varphi$ realizes the association between a point of $\mathcal{X}_{10}$ and a
1091 real number into $\big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[$. We must now translate the chaotic
1092 iterations $\Go$ on this real interval. To do so, two intermediate functions
1093 over $\big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[$ must be introduced:
1098 Let $x \in \big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[$ and:
1100 \item $e_0, \hdots, e_9$ the binary digits of the integral part of $x$:
1101 $\displaystyle{\lfloor x \rfloor = \sum_{k=0}^{9} 2^{9-k} e_k}$.
1102 \item $(s^k)_{k\in \mathds{N}}$ the digits of $x$, where the chosen decimal
1103 decomposition of $x$ is the one that does not have an infinite number of 9:
1104 $\displaystyle{x = \lfloor x \rfloor + \sum_{k=0}^{+\infty} s^k 10^{-k-1}}$.
1106 $e$ and $s$ are thus defined as follows:
1109 e: & \big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[ & \longrightarrow & \mathds{B}^{10} \\
1110 & x & \longmapsto & (e_0, \hdots, e_9)
1116 s: & \big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[ & \longrightarrow & \llbracket 0, 9
1117 \rrbracket^{\mathds{N}} \\
1118 & x & \longmapsto & (s^k)_{k \in \mathds{N}}
1123 We are now able to define the function $g$, whose goal is to translate the
1124 chaotic iterations $\Go$ on an interval of $\mathds{R}$.
1127 $g:\big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[ \longrightarrow \big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[$ is defined by:
1130 g: & \big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[ & \longrightarrow & \big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[ \\
1131 & x & \longmapsto & g(x)
1134 where g(x) is the real number of $\big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[$ defined bellow:
1136 \item its integral part has a binary decomposition equal to $e_0', \hdots,
1141 e(x)_i & \textrm{ if } i \neq s^0\\
1142 e(x)_i + 1 \textrm{ (mod 2)} & \textrm{ if } i = s^0\\
1146 \item whose decimal part is $s(x)^1, s(x)^2, \hdots$
1153 In other words, if $x = \displaystyle{\sum_{k=0}^{9} 2^{9-k} e_k +
1154 \sum_{k=0}^{+\infty} s^{k} ~10^{-k-1}}$, then:
1157 \displaystyle{\sum_{k=0}^{9} 2^{9-k} (e_k + \delta(k,s^0) \textrm{ (mod 2)}) +
1158 \sum_{k=0}^{+\infty} s^{k+1} 10^{-k-1}}.
1162 \subsubsection{Defining a metric on $\big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[$}
1164 Numerous metrics can be defined on the set $\big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[$, the most
1165 usual one being the Euclidian distance recalled bellow:
1168 \index{distance!euclidienne}
1169 $\Delta$ is the Euclidian distance on $\big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[$, that is,
1170 $\Delta(x,y) = |y-x|^2$.
1175 This Euclidian distance does not reproduce exactly the notion of proximity
1176 induced by our first distance $d$ on $\X$. Indeed $d$ is finer than $\Delta$.
1177 This is the reason why we have to introduce the following metric:
1182 Let $x,y \in \big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[$.
1183 $D$ denotes the function from $\big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[^2$ to $\mathds{R}^+$
1184 defined by: $D(x,y) = D_e\left(e(x),e(y)\right) + D_s\left(s(x),s(y)\right)$,
1187 $\displaystyle{D_e(E,\check{E}) = \sum_{k=0}^\mathsf{9} \delta (E_k,
1188 \check{E}_k)}$, ~~and~ $\displaystyle{D_s(S,\check{S}) = \sum_{k = 1}^\infty
1189 \dfrac{|S^k-\check{S}^k|}{10^k}}$.
1194 $D$ is a distance on $\big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[$.
1198 The three axioms defining a distance must be checked.
1200 \item $D \geqslant 0$, because everything is positive in its definition. If
1201 $D(x,y)=0$, then $D_e(x,y)=0$, so the integral parts of $x$ and $y$ are equal
1202 (they have the same binary decomposition). Additionally, $D_s(x,y) = 0$, then
1203 $\forall k \in \mathds{N}^*, s(x)^k = s(y)^k$. In other words, $x$ and $y$ have
1204 the same $k-$th decimal digit, $\forall k \in \mathds{N}^*$. And so $x=y$.
1205 \item $D(x,y)=D(y,x)$.
1206 \item Finally, the triangular inequality is obtained due to the fact that both
1207 $\delta$ and $\Delta(x,y)=|x-y|$ satisfy it.
1212 The convergence of sequences according to $D$ is not the same than the usual
1213 convergence related to the Euclidian metric. For instance, if $x^n \to x$
1214 according to $D$, then necessarily the integral part of each $x^n$ is equal to
1215 the integral part of $x$ (at least after a given threshold), and the decimal
1216 part of $x^n$ corresponds to the one of $x$ ``as far as required''.
1217 To illustrate this fact, a comparison between $D$ and the Euclidian distance is
1218 given Figure \ref{fig:comparaison de distances}. These illustrations show that
1219 $D$ is richer and more refined than the Euclidian distance, and thus is more

1237 \subsubsection{The semiconjugacy}
1239 It is now possible to define a topological semiconjugacy between $\mathcal{X}$
1240 and an interval of $\mathds{R}$:
1243 Chaotic iterations on the phase space $\mathcal{X}$ are simple iterations on
1244 $\mathds{R}$, which is illustrated by the semiconjugacy of the diagram bellow:
1247 \left(~\mathcal{S}_{10} \times\mathds{B}^{10}, d~\right) @>G_{f_0}>>
1248 \left(~\mathcal{S}_{10} \times\mathds{B}^{10}, d~\right)\\
1249 @V{\varphi}VV @VV{\varphi}V\\
1250 \left( ~\big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[, D~\right) @>>g> \left(~\big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[,
1257 $\varphi$ has been constructed in order to be continuous and onto.
1260 In other words, $\mathcal{X}$ is approximately equal to $\big[ 0, 2^\mathsf{N}

1307 \caption{General aspect of the chaotic iterations.}
1312 We have written a Python program to represent the chaotic iterations with the
1313 vectorial negation on the real line $\mathds{R}$. Various representations of
1314 these CIs are given in Figures \ref{fig:ICs}, \ref{fig:ICs2} and \ref{fig:ICs3}.
1315 It can be remarked that the function $g$ is a piecewise linear function: it is
1316 linear on each interval having the form $\left[ \dfrac{n}{10},
1317 \dfrac{n+1}{10}\right[$, $n \in \llbracket 0;2^{10}\times 10 \rrbracket$ and its
1318 slope is equal to 10. Let us justify these claims:
1321 \label{Prop:derivabilite des ICs}
1322 Chaotic iterations $g$ defined on $\mathds{R}$ have derivatives of all orders on
1323 $\big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[$, except on the 10241 points in $I$ defined by $\left\{
1324 \dfrac{n}{10} ~\big/~ n \in \llbracket 0;2^{10}\times 10\rrbracket \right\}$.
1326 Furthermore, on each interval of the form $\left[ \dfrac{n}{10},
1327 \dfrac{n+1}{10}\right[$, with $n \in \llbracket 0;2^{10}\times 10 \rrbracket$,
1328 $g$ is a linear function, having a slope equal to 10: $\forall x \notin I,
1334 Let $I_n = \left[ \dfrac{n}{10}, \dfrac{n+1}{10}\right[$, with $n \in \llbracket
1335 0;2^{10}\times 10 \rrbracket$. All the points of $I_n$ have the same integral
1336 prat $e$ and the same decimal part $s^0$: on the set $I_n$, functions $e(x)$
1337 and $x \mapsto s(x)^0$ of Definition \ref{def:e et s} only depend on $n$. So all
1338 the images $g(x)$ of these points $x$:
1340 \item Have the same integral part, which is $e$, except probably the bit number
1341 $s^0$. In other words, this integer has approximately the same binary
1342 decomposition than $e$, the sole exception being the digit $s^0$ (this number is
1343 then either $e+2^{10-s^0}$ or $e-2^{10-s^0}$, depending on the parity of $s^0$,
1344 \emph{i.e.}, it is equal to $e+(-1)^{s^0}\times 2^{10-s^0}$).
1345 \item A shift to the left has been applied to the decimal part $y$, losing by
1346 doing so the common first digit $s^0$. In other words, $y$ has been mapped into
1349 To sum up, the action of $g$ on the points of $I$ is as follows: first, make a
1350 multiplication by 10, and second, add the same constant to each term, which is
1351 $\dfrac{1}{10}\left(e+(-1)^{s^0}\times 2^{10-s^0}\right)-s^0$.
1355 Finally, chaotic iterations are elements of the large family of functions that
1356 are both chaotic and piecewise linear (like the tent map).
1361 \subsection{Comparison of the two metrics on $\big[ 0, 2^\mathsf{N} \big[$}
1363 The two propositions bellow allow to compare our two distances on $\big[ 0,
1364 2^\mathsf{N} \big[$:
1367 Id: $\left(~\big[ 0, 2^\mathsf{N} \big[,\Delta~\right) \to \left(~\big[ 0,
1368 2^\mathsf{N} \big[, D~\right)$ is not continuous.
1372 The sequence $x^n = 1,999\hdots 999$ constituted by $n$ 9 as decimal part, is
1375 \item $\Delta (x^n,2) \to 0.$
1376 \item But $D(x^n,2) \geqslant 1$, then $D(x^n,2)$ does not converge to 0.
1379 The sequential characterization of the continuity concludes the demonstration.
1387 Id: $\left(~\big[ 0, 2^\mathsf{N} \big[,D~\right) \to \left(~\big[ 0,
1388 2^\mathsf{N} \big[, \Delta ~\right)$ is a continuous fonction.
1392 If $D(x^n,x) \to 0$, then $D_e(x^n,x) = 0$ at least for $n$ larger than a given
1393 threshold, because $D_e$ only returns integers. So, after this threshold, the
1394 integral parts of all the $x^n$ are equal to the integral part of $x$.
1396 Additionally, $D_s(x^n, x) \to 0$, then $\forall k \in \mathds{N}^*, \exists N_k
1397 \in \mathds{N}, n \geqslant N_k \Rightarrow D_s(x^n,x) \leqslant 10^{-k}$. This
1398 means that for all $k$, an index $N_k$ can be found such that, $\forall n
1399 \geqslant N_k$, all the $x^n$ have the same $k$ firsts digits, which are the
1400 digits of $x$. We can deduce the convergence $\Delta(x^n,x) \to 0$, and thus the
1404 The conclusion of these propositions is that the proposed metric is more precise
1405 than the Euclidian distance, that is:
1408 $D$ is finer than the Euclidian distance $\Delta$.
1411 This corollary can be reformulated as follows:
1414 \item The topology produced by $\Delta$ is a subset of the topology produced by
1416 \item $D$ has more open sets than $\Delta$.
1417 \item It is harder to converge for the topology $\tau_D$ inherited by $D$, than
1418 to converge with the one inherited by $\Delta$, which is denoted here by
1423 \subsection{Chaos of the chaotic iterations on $\mathds{R}$}
1424 \label{chpt:Chaos des itérations chaotiques sur R}
1428 \subsubsection{Chaos according to Devaney}
1430 We have recalled previously that the chaotic iterations $\left(\Go,
1431 \mathcal{X}_d\right)$ are chaotic according to the formulation of Devaney. We
1432 can deduce that they are chaotic on $\mathds{R}$ too, when considering the order
1435 \item $\left(\Go, \mathcal{X}_d\right)$ and $\left(g, \big[ 0, 2^{10}
1436 \big[_D\right)$ are semiconjugate by $\varphi$,
1437 \item Then $\left(g, \big[ 0, 2^{10} \big[_D\right)$ is a system chaotic
1438 according to Devaney, because the semiconjugacy preserve this character.
1439 \item But the topology generated by $D$ is finer than the topology generated by
1440 the Euclidian distance $\Delta$ -- which is the order topology.
1441 \item According to Theorem \ref{Th:chaos et finesse}, we can deduce that the
1442 chaotic iterations $g$ are indeed chaotic, as defined by Devaney, for the order
1443 topology on $\mathds{R}$.
1446 This result can be formulated as follows.
1449 \label{th:IC et topologie de l'ordre}
1450 The chaotic iterations $g$ on $\mathds{R}$ are chaotic according to the
1451 Devaney's formulation, when $\mathds{R}$ has his usual topology, which is the
1455 Indeed this result is weaker than the theorem establishing the chaos for the
1456 finer topology $d$. However the Theorem \ref{th:IC et topologie de l'ordre}
1457 still remains important. Indeed, we have studied in our previous works a set
1458 different from the usual set of study ($\mathcal{X}$ instead of $\mathds{R}$),
1459 in order to be as close as possible from the computer: the properties of
1460 disorder proved theoretically will then be preserved when computing. However, we
1461 could wonder whether this change does not lead to a disorder of a lower quality.
1462 In other words, have we replaced a situation of a good disorder lost when
1463 computing, to another situation of a disorder preserved but of bad quality.
1464 Theorem \ref{th:IC et topologie de l'ordre} prove exactly the contrary.
