Tesser(AI)ct-256: A 4D Geometric Topology Approach to High-Speed Cryptography

Traditional block ciphers rely on Substitution-Permutation Networks (SPN) that often encounter performance bottlenecks in high-level runtimes like JavaScript. This paper introduces Tesser(AI)ct-256, a cryptographic algorithm that maps data onto a 4-dimensional hypercube topology. By utilizing a 4D reflection function across 6 rounds, Tesser(AI)ct-256 achieves superior diffusion and a 13.99x performance increase over AES-256-CBC in stabilized JavaScript environments.
