Abstract

Let {x n } be pseudorandom numbers inI=[0,1) of the maximal period, generated by the modified inversive method with modulusM, M=2α. We show that, for anys≥2, the set of all nonoverlappings-tuples X ns =(x ns ,x ns +1, ...,x ns +s−1) ∈I s,n=0,1, ..., (M/2)−1, is the same as the intersection ofI s with a union of some number of grids with explicitly known shift vectors and lattice bases. Our arguments follow closely those in the paper by Eichnauer-Herrmann, Grothe, Niederreiter and Topuzoglu.
