A Deterministic Symbolic Sequence from Phonetic Letter Encoding: Sublinear Complexity and an LCR near π

Open access
Budargham, Bahaa·2026·Zenodo

Abstract

We report a deterministic symbolic sequence generated from a single English letter name using a recursive operator on phonetic encodings. The first 2,000 symbols exhibit sublinear factor complexity, zero topological entropy, near-deterministic letter transitions, and a limiting growth ratio close to π. The sequence is shown over a 16-letter alphabet that has been permuted by a fixed 1–1 substitution for staged disclosure. The original mapping and operator are withheld under the EOA staged disclosure policy and can be made available under a signed collaboration agreement. We provide the sequence, its statistics, and open questions. We invite collaboration to identify the underlying substitution or automaton and to explain the observed phenomena.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
