A Constraint Elimination Analysis of the Zodiac Z13 Cipher

open access: yes
This working paper documents a constraint elimination pass on the Z13 cipher. It is not a proposed plaintext solution nor a suspect attribution. The purpose is to formally reduce the symbol mapping search space under injective constraint and symbol budget analysis.

Gödelian Completeness in Cipher Decoding: A Deterministic Resolution of the Zodiac Z13

open access: yes
This paper presents a novel Gödelian completeness framework for deterministiccipher decoding. Applying recursive modular symmetry, prime-based symbolic encoding, and harmonic substitution, we show that the Zodiac Z13 cipher is derivable from a single axiom: the name Karl Werner.

A Vigenère Solution to the Zodiac Killer's Z13 Cipher: MY NAME IS LEIGH

open access: yes
THE BREAKTHROUGH: Nobody in 55 years treated "My name is" as part of the encrypted message. Every previous attempt assumed the 13 cipher characters contained a complete name. They don't. "My name is" IS the plaintext for columns 1–8. The cipher only hides 5 characters — a single first name.

The Zodiac Z13 and Z32 Ciphers as a Structural Anti-Cipher System: NANNANLA as Closure Signature and Z32 as Terminal Operator

open access: yes
The Zodiac Killer’s Z13 (“My name is—”) and Z32 (map/bomb code) ciphers remain unsolved despite decades of analysis. This paper proposes that they are not conventional homophonic substitution puzzles, but instead form a deliberately constructed self-closing disclosure system encoding permanent structural ambiguity rather than recoverable plaintext ...
