lightbulbAbout this topic

Finite precision refers to the limitation in representing numbers in computational systems due to a fixed number of digits or bits. This constraint affects calculations and data storage, leading to rounding errors and loss of accuracy in numerical computations, particularly in fields such as computer science, numerical analysis, and engineering.

Cryptanalysis of a new chaotic cryptosystem based on ergodicity

by David Arroyo

2008, Arxiv preprint arXiv: …

This paper analyzes the security of a recent cryptosystem based on the ergodicity property of chaotic maps. It is shown how to obtain the secret key using a chosen-ciphertext attack. Some other design weaknesses are also shown.
