Help me make a very mathematical encryption algorithm

[Jamin2112]

Suppose I make an application with a password of max 20 characters -- no special characters and not case-sensitive. So that means there is a 1-to-1 correspondence between the set of all passwords P and the set S = {1, 2, ..., 37²⁰ - 1, 37²⁰}. A simple bijective function f:P-->S could be constructed. Then I want to construct another bijective function g:S-->T for some set T. Any ideas?

Hey Jamin2112.

What properties do you want your bijective function to have?

Hey Jamin2112.

Actually, it doesn't have to be bijective, now that I think about it. Could be merely injective.

Maybe take the binary representation of the numbers and have each of those digits correspond to parameters in a differential equation?

What is the quantization scheme you want to use for the parameters and what is the state space for the DE model?

Scratch that. I'm going to need something simpler than a differential equation.

Let's assume the ints 1, 2, ..., 37²⁰ are represented with 64 bits. Convert the binary representation of each to an 8 x 8 matrix of 0's and 1's. Then raise that matrix to, say, the 69th power. Now we have to assume that this makes for an injective function. Is that too much to assume?

One small problem:

log_2(37^20) = 20*log_2(37) = 30*ln(37)/ln(2) = 104.1891 which means if you have a uniform distribution with those values, you will need at least 105 bits to store them.

Make 'em 16 x 16 matrices. We've got a 256-bit machine.

So what do you want your function to be exactly (given this 16x16 matrix)?

g(M) = M⁶⁹ where M ε ℝ^16x16

Lets assume that if the only possible M in the domain are those binary matrix representations of the numbers 1 through 37²⁰, we have an injective function.
