AbstractWe consider the problem of computing the Lyapunov exponents of reversible cellular automata (CA). We show that the class of reversible CA with right Lyapunov exponent 2 cannot be separated algorithmically from the class of reversible CA whose right Lyapunov exponents are at most $$2-\delta$$ 2 - δ for some absolute constant $$\delta >0$$ δ > 0 . Therefore there is no algorithm that, given as an input a description of an arbitrary reversible CA F and a positive rational number $$\epsilon >0$$ ϵ > 0 , outputs the Lyapunov exponents of F with accuracy $$\epsilon$$ ϵ . We also compute the average Lyapunov exponents (with respect to the uniform measure) of the reversible CA that perform multiplication by p in base pq for coprime $$p,q>1$$ p , q > 1 .

The given paper is devoted to the software development of block cipher based on reversible one-dimensional cellular automata and the study of its statistical properties. The software implementation of the proposed encryption algorithm is performed in C# programming language in Visual Studio 2017. The paper presents specially designed approach for key generation. To ensure desired cryptographic stability, the shared secret parameters can be adjusted to contain information needed for creating substitution tables, defining reversible rules, and hiding final data. For the first time, it is suggested to create substitution tables based on iterations of a cellular automaton that is initialized by the key data.
