Minimal period
Summary
The minimal period, or prime period, of a periodic point is the least number of steps after which it returns to itself. It equals the number of distinct points in its orbit. Every period of the point is a multiple of the minimal period. Results such as Sharkovskii's theorem are stated in terms of minimal periods.
