Neural-Plasma Algorithm for Drift-Resistant Lattice Optimization in ML-KEM: Empirical Validation and Quantum Adversarial Resilience

This preprint introduces Plasma-Guided Neural BKZ (PG-NBKZ), a physics-informed neural operator anchored by the Neural-Plasma Algorithm (NPAP) that treats ML-KEM lattice bases as a charged plasma continuum. By minimizing a topological potential that enforces exact module invariants, PG-NBKZ reduces per-tour complexity from classical O (2^0. 292β) to O (β log q) while preserving algebraic structure. Small-scale proxy simulations (n=8–32, q=3329) demonstrate a 3. 15× speedup and superior vector reduction (norm 1531 vs. 4204). Against a Grover-amplified quantum sieving oracle, NPAP dynamic viscosity injection induces destructive interference, neutralizing the quadratic speedup and maintaining the full theoretical security margin of ML-KEM. The framework directly addresses representational drift in high-stakes post-quantum systems and bridges quantum biology (right-hemisphere empathy circuits and biophoton tunneling) with cryptographic resilience. It expands the TINA (Truth-Invariant Neural Architecture) blueprint into practical, drift-resistant lattice optimization for DOE Genesis Mission applications and space-terrestrial relays. All components are compatible with 2026-era hardware. This work provides both theoretical proofs and empirical validation, offering a concrete pathway toward high-fidelity, quantum-secure AI in national security and orbital environments.
