The architecture targets prime generation for RSA, Diffie-Hellman, and ECC, including proofs when prime distributions are biased.

A cs.CR paper proposes an adaptive arbitrary-precision framework for generating and testing very large primes used by public-key systems. It combines classical number theory with machine-learning models and optimization algorithms. The work reviews deterministic and probabilistic tests, hardware optimizations, and quantum-secured entropy, and offers proofs intended to hold even if the prime distribution is biased.

Key facts
  • Security assumptions cited are integer factorization and the discrete logarithm problem.
  • The framework is limited to primality testing rather than a full cryptosystem.
  • Both deterministic and probabilistic testing methods are analyzed.

The security of modern public-key cryptographic systems, such as RSA, Diffie-Hellman, and ECC, depends entirely on the computational intractability of the integer factorization and discrete logarithm problems. For these asymmetric algorithms to operate, a core requirement is that the system must be capable of generating, testing, and simultaneously proving the primality of extraordinarily large numbers.
