Cosmic Stimulant Cipher

A quantum-inspired encryption system that leverages principles from quantum field theory and cosmology to create a robust and future-proof cipher.

Features

• Quantum Field Generation: Simulates vacuum fluctuations and quantum potentials
• Dark Entropy Collection: Utilizes cosmic expansion and dark matter effects
• Advanced Visualization: View attractors, quantum entropy, and Casimir effects
• DNA-based Key Expansion: Biological-inspired key strengthening
• Quantum Simulation: Entanglement and decoherence effects

Security Features

• 128-bit minimum quantum random seeds
• Cryptographic hashing of seeds for uniform distribution
• Parameter validation to ensure chaotic behavior
• Input validation for all operations
• Unicode support with UTF-8 encoding

Installation

1. Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Run tests:

python test_cipher.py

Testing

Run the comprehensive test suite:

python -m unittest test_cipher.py -v

Test coverage includes:

• Quantum seed generation
• Encryption/decryption of various text types
• Edge cases and error conditions

Usage

from cosmic_cipher import generate_cosmic_seed, chaotic_to_keystream, encrypt, decrypt
from chaotic_generator import generate_stellar_sequence

# Generate seed and keystream
seed = generate_cosmic_seed()
sequence = generate_stellar_sequence(seed)
keystream = chaotic_to_keystream(sequence)

# Encrypt message
message = "Hello, Cosmic Cipher! 🌌"
ciphertext = encrypt(message, keystream)

# Decrypt message
decrypted = decrypt(ciphertext, keystream)
