TL;DR
This work addresses generating cryptographic-grade randomness from general-purpose computation by formulating a composition law for RPSS, a framework with two conjugate observables: the discrete permutation count $\hat{N}_p$ and the continuous elapsed time $\hat{T}$. The central result, $\varphi_{\hat{T}}(\omega) = G_{\hat{N}_p}(\varphi_X(\omega))$, links the characteristic function of timing to the probability generating function of permutation counts, enabling entropy purification via geometric convergence under modular reduction. The authors prove convergence bounds and validate them empirically, achieving Shannon entropy $H > 7.9998$ bits per byte with near-uniform distributions across diverse platforms, culminating in a self-contained TURNG (QPP-RNG) that adapts to environment while remaining provably uniform. This software-defined, hardware-agnostic approach provides a practical path to cryptographic-grade randomness suitable for post-quantum security, with strong resistance to timing-based attacks and straightforward integration into cryptographic modules.
Abstract
We present the discovery of a fundamental composition law governing conjugate observables in the Random Permutation Sorting System (RPSS). The law links the discrete permutation count Np and the continuous elapsed time T through a functional relation connecting the characteristic function of timing distributions to the probability generating function of permutation counts. This framework enables entropy purification, transforming microarchitectural timing fluctuations into uniform randomness via geometric convergence. We establish convergence theorems with explicit bounds and validate the results experimentally, achieving Shannon entropy above 7.9998 bits per byte and chi-square uniformity across diverse platforms. The composition law provides a universal foundation for generating provably uniform randomness from general-purpose computation, securing cryptographic purity from emergent computational dynamics.
