Algorithmic Encryption of Natural Numbers Based on the Collatz Conjecture
Abstract: This paper creates an encryption technique based on the well-known unresolved mathematical problem known as the Collatz conjecture. This conjecture states that every natural number larger than one eventually lowers to one by a set of precise procedures called the Collatz sequence. The study’s methodology associates these sequences’ terms with the Turkish alphabet’s letters. The Collatz transformation is applied to the integer that corresponds to each letter. The words created …
