This is Paper 6 of a series of formally-verified analyses of masked NTT hardware for post-quantum cryptography; Paper 1 [1] established structural dependency analysis of the QANARY platform, and Paper 2 [2] quantified security margins under…
Formal verification of masking in post-quantum cryptographic (PQC) hardware relies on SMT solvers over finite domains. Our prior work established structural dependency analysis at scale [1] and quantified the security margin of partial NTT…
Adams Bridge, a hardware accelerator for ML-DSA and ML-KEM designed for the Caliptra root of trust, masks 1 of its Inverse Number Theoretic Transform (INTT) layers and relies on shuffling for the remainder, claiming per-butterfly…
Post-quantum cryptographic (PQC) accelerators implementing ML-KEM (FIPS 203) and ML-DSA (FIPS 204) require side-channel resistance evidence for FIPS 140-3 certification. However, exact masking-verification tools scale only to gadgets of a…

Barrett reduction is the nonlinear core of every practical NTT-based post-quantum cryptography implementation. Existing composition frameworks (ISW, t-SNI, PINI, DOM) address Boolean masking over GF(2); none provides a machine-checked…
Post-Quantum Cryptographic (PQC) algorithms are mathematically secure and resistant to quantum attacks but can still leak sensitive information in hardware implementations due to natural faults or intentional fault injections. The intent…
Number Theoretic Transform (NTT) is the most essential component for polynomial multiplications used in lattice-based Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) algorithms such as Kyber, Dilithium, NTRU etc. However, side-channel attacks (SCA) and…
The Number Theoretic Transform (NTT) is a fundamental operation in privacy-preserving technologies, particularly within fully homomorphic encryption (FHE). The efficiency of NTT computation directly impacts the overall performance of FHE,…
In recent years, machine learning (ML) and neural networks (NNs) have gained widespread use and attention across various domains, particularly in transportation for achieving autonomy, including the emergence of flying taxis for urban air…
Structure determination by chemical-shift-driven NMR crystallography relies on comparing chemical shieldings measured in solid-state NMR experiments with simulations. However, computational cost limits the accuracy of shielding predictions,…
We develop a formal theory of throughput in finite serial pipeline systems subject to stage multiplicative capacity perturbations, motivated by the deployment of AI tools in cybersecurity operations. A pipeline is a finite totally ordered…
Proteomic matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation (MALDI) linear time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) may be used to produce protein profiles from biological samples with the aim of discovering biomarkers for disease. However,…
Modern Large Language Model (LLM) systems are assembled from third-party artifacts such as pre-trained weights, fine-tuning adapters, datasets, dependency packages, and container images, fetched through automated pipelines. This speed comes…
Control modular addition is a core arithmetic function, and we must consider the computational cost for actual quantum computers to realize efficient implementation. To achieve a low computational cost in a control modular adder, we focus…
Polynomial multiplication stands out as a highly demanding arithmetic process in the development of post-quantum cryptosystems. The importance of the number-theoretic transform (NTT) extends beyond post-quantum cryptosystems, proving…
Recent work on stealing machine learning (ML) models from inference engines with physical side-channel attacks warrant an urgent need for effective side-channel defenses. This work proposes the first $\textit{fully-masked}$ neural network…
Multi-agent LLM systems are entering production -- processing documents, managing workflows, acting on behalf of users -- yet their resilience to prompt injection is still evaluated with a single binary: did the attack succeed? This leaves…
Large language models (LLMs) have recently achieved remarkable success in generating rigorous mathematical proofs, with "AI for Math" emerging as a vibrant field of research (Ju et al., 2026). While these models have mastered…
Integrity of audit logs produced by Internet of Things (IoT) devices is a prerequisite for post-incident forensics, regulatory compliance, and operational accountability. While blockchain-backed logging infrastructures can satisfy this…
