Two-cycle count conjectures for the discrete logarithm map
Two-cycle count conjectures for the discrete logarithm map
Let be prime. Write for the number of two-cycles with the indicated restrictions on and , and for the corresponding count in the auxiliary formulation; the symbols , , , , , and have the meanings fixed earlier in the paper. Let be Euler's totient function.
Two-cycle counting conjectures.
The equalities in the first, fifth, third, and sixth relations are noted in the source to be exact by symmetry. The asymptotic predictions arise from a random-map heuristic and are not proved in the supplied text.
