• Abstract: This paper explores the development and viability of an alternative pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) that leverages the chaotic dynamics of multiple pendulum systems. Some traditional PRNGs, notably the one implemented in the Java.Random class, suffer from predictability which gives rise to exploitability. This study identifies these vulnerabilities and proposes a novel PRNG designed using ordinary differential equations, physics modeling, and chaos theory. The performance of the new PRNG is then tested against Java's standard PRNGs using the NIST Statistical Test Suite, which evaluates randomness through comprehensive statistical testing. Results indicate that the multiple pendulum-based PRNG not only offers enhanced security by generating less predictable number sequences but also demonstrates potential for efficiency improvements in applications requiring high levels of entropy. The findings suggest that integrating chaotic physics-based systems into PRNGs, such as the double-pendulum system tested in this study, could strengthen cryptographic practices and security protocols for applications that do not require the level of security created by true random number generators, which is useful in fields such as gaming.

  Minecraft is great for games, but not so great for cybersecurity encryption key generation. PRNGs generate random numbers by quantifying some unpredictable phenomena into a number or string and feeding it into an algorithm. By using a hardware random number generator (HRNG), random numbers that are not susceptible to the flaws found in PRNGs can be attained at a high rate.

  We present and make available a comprehensive statistical testing environment (STE) based on existing statistical test suites. The STE can be parameterised to run lightweight (i.e. fast) all the way to intensive testing, which goes far beyond what is required by certification bodies. We then present and implement a variety of post-processing methods, in the form of randomness extractors, which improve the RNG's output quality under different sets of assumptions.

  This work analyzes evolutions in the extractable amount of randomness with increasing the Hilbert space dimension. We investigate the generic case of time-bin encoding scheme, define various input (state preparation) and outcome (measurement) subspaces. We demonstrate that this approach can boost the system entropy, resulting in more extractable randomness.

  We introduce the qDrift protocol, which builds random product formulas by sampling from the Hamiltonian according to the coefficients. We show that the simulation cost can be reduced while achieving the same accuracy, by considering the individual simulation cost during the sampling stage. Results are confirmed by numerical simulations performed on a lattice nuclear effective field theory.

Series are tested with a battery of standard statistical indicators, Hurst, Kolmogorov complexity, minimum entropy, Takensarity dimension of embedding, and Augmented Dickey Fuller and Kwiatkowski Phillips Schmidt Shin to check station exponent. The level of randomness of series obtained by applying Toeplitz extractor to rejected series is found to be indistinguishable from the level of non-rejected raw ones.
