While it is known previously that the cycle lengths of individual components of the AES round function are very small, we demonstrate here that the cycle length of the S-box combined with the ShiftRow and MixColumn transformation is at least 10

. This result is obtained by providing new invariances of the complete AES round function without the key addition. Furthermore, we consider self-duality properties of the AES round function and derive a property analogous to the complementation property of the DES round function.These results confirm the assessments given in other publications that the AES components have several unexpected structural properties.
