A Single-Root, Multi-Curve, Context-Isolated, PQC-Pluggable Cryptographic Identity Primitive with Stateless Secret Rotation

Cryptographic identity anchors modern decentralized systems, yet current standards like BIP-39 and BIP-32 are structurally insufficient for the demands of multi-curve, multi-domain, and post-quantum PQC environments. These legacy schemes rely on a monolithic identity root with no inherent context...

Engel P-Adic Isogeny-Based Cryptography over Laurent Series: Foundations, Security, and an ESP32 Implementation

Securing the Internet of Things IoT against quantum attacks requires public-key cryptography that i remains compact and ii runs efficiently on microcontrollers, capabilities many post-quantum PQ schemes lack due to large keys and heavy arithmetic.
