Spectral Analysis of Cryptographic Hash Functions Using Fourier Techniques
Keywords:
Fourier analysis, cryptographic hash functions, spectral analysis, entropy, collision resistance.Abstract
This paper explores the application of Fourier spectral analysis to evaluate the security propertiesof cryptographic hash functions, offering a novel approach to assessing their robustness beyondtraditional time-domain methods. By examining key spectral features such as spectral density,entropy, and frequency distribution
