Number Theory Project

Overview

The Number Theory Project is a comprehensive Rust-based toolkit designed for researchers, educators, and developers interested in number theory and cryptography. The project encompasses a wide range of algorithms and tools, including prime number analysis, elliptic curve operations, Diophantine equations, and quantum-resistant cryptographic methods. The project is structured to be modular and extendable, making it suitable for both academic research and practical applications in secure communications.

Features

• Prime Number Distribution Analysis: Visualize and analyze the distribution of prime numbers.
• Factorization Algorithms: Implementations of Pollard's Rho, trial division, and other methods for integer factorization.
• Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC): Support for multiple elliptic curves, including operations for key exchange and encryption.
• Diophantine Equations: Solvers for linear and non-linear Diophantine equations.
• Quantum-Resistant Cryptography: Lattice-based and hash-based algorithms designed to be secure against quantum computing threats.
• Machine Learning Integration: Use machine learning models to predict properties related to number theory and cryptographic applications.

Installation
