Lustro by Ligatum

Ligatum released Lustro V1, a deterministic state-flow diffusion engine that derives transformation parameters from evolving state rather than predefined schedules, with scalar speeds exceeding 13GB/s on an i5-11600K. The project evaluates the architecture for one-way functions including hash functions, PRNGs, and XOFs, while noting observations are empirical and not formal proof of cryptographic security.

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.
