Lustro V1 Project Description

Lustro V1 is a deterministic state-flow diffusion engine built around the idea that transformation parameters can emerge from the evolving state itself rather than from predefined schedules or static control structures.

The architecture intentionally separates the Initial Diffusion Module (IDM) from an autonomous state-evolution mechanism - the Evolving Representation Dynamics (ERD) - where interacting state channels co-evolve to derive the governing parameters.

The project currently evaluates this architecture as a foundation for a variety of one-way functions, such as hash functions, pseudorandom number generators (PRNG), and extendable-output functions (XOF). Scalar version speed can reach over 13GB/s with batching (i5-11600K @ 4.5GHz).

All observations presented in this repository are empirical and describe the behaviour of the system. These observations are not intended as a formal proof of cryptographic security.

The API, technical documentation, test implementations, empirical evaluation, and the design philosophy behind the project are included throughout this repository.
