Periodic autocorrelation of sequences

TL;DR
It is shown that the same is true for the evaluation of the periodic autocorrelations of random binary sequences as for the evaluation of the periodic autocorrelations of random Boolean functions.
Abstract
The autocorrelation of a sequence is a useful criterion, among all, of resistance to cryptographic attacks. The behavior of the autocorrelations of random Boolean functions (studied by Florian Caullery, Eric Férard and François Rodier [4]) shows that they are concentrated around a point. We show that the same is true for the evaluation of the periodic autocorrelations of random binary sequences.
