A dynamical approach towards Collatz conjecture
arXiv:1910.08497
Abstract
The present work focuses on the study of the renowned Collatz conjecture, also known as the problem. The distinguished analysis approach lies on the dynamics of an iterative map in binary form. A new estimation of the enlargement of iterated numbers is given. Within the associated iterative map, characteristic periods for periodic orbits are identified.
