Provenance and Authorization in Autobiographical Language Models
Faruk Alpay, Taylan Alpay
Autobiographical language models may draw on archives containing observations, quotations, emotional reports, and earlier model outputs. Cryptographic authentication can preserve a…
Approval Integrity and Recovery in LLM Answer Publication
Faruk Alpay, Taylan Alpay
Publication integrity in LLM systems requires binding approved content to its current authorization context. We examine exact-content binding, authorization freshness and checkpoin…
AccretionLink: On-Device Auditing of Exposure-Control Attacks on Attribute Inference
Faruk Alpay, Taylan Alpay
Exposure control lets an adversary rank authentic public posts to strengthen private-attribute inference without altering content. AccretionLink defines confidentiality and integri…
Pattern-Derived Visual Swarm Games: Multi-Scale Drone-Vision States for Interception and Sustainability Audits
Faruk Alpay, Levent Sarioglu
We convert drone-vision annotation streams into virtual swarm-game states without controlling physical drones. VisDrone and UAVSwarm metadata are compressed into a Bloom representa…
Conductance-Repair Evidence Graphs for Prospective Security Retrieval
Faruk Alpay, Taylan Alpay
Security retrieval is often evaluated as ranking over complete evidence, but operational triage is prospective: CVE descriptions, weakness metadata, fix commits, EPSS scores, KEV m…
Observer-Quotient Security: Composable Leakage Bounds for Hidden State Continuations
Faruk Alpay, Levent Sarioglu
Observer-quotient security studies interactive cryptographic systems whose security depends on what an admissible observer can distinguish across transcripts, leakage traces, and h…
Epistemic Horizon Minority Games: When Abundance Reduces Strategic Value
Faruk Alpay, Levent Sarioglu
Strategic value can fall when an option becomes visible. A route, signal, bet, or opportunity may be attractive because few agents see it; public attention can erase the advantage…
Radial Interaction Tomography: Recognizing Non-Transitive Evolutionary Games from One Range-Expansion Image
Faruk Alpay, Baris Basaran
Colored sectors in a microbial range expansion encode more than lineage survival counts. We formulate a computer-vision inverse problem: from one endpoint image of an accretive mul…
Interface-Variant Dynamics in Software Ecosystems: Resolver-Induced Selection and Adoption in Package Graphs
Faruk Alpay, Baris Basaran
Compatibility research usually treats an interface change as a local writer-reader decision. Distributed software stacks make that decision population structured: an RPC, telemetry…
Detector-Output Instability near the Kesten-Stigum Boundary: Separating Hard Readout, Relaxation, and Fixed-Point Dispersion
Faruk Alpay, Baris Basaran
Community-detection algorithms usually return a single partition, even when independent initializations or small data perturbations yield several plausible outputs. We probe this o…
Dipole Diffusion Error in Thin Geometry: Optical Thickness Laws for Grid-Free Subsurface Scattering
Faruk Alpay, Baris Basaran
The dipole and its descendants model subsurface scattering with a radial reflectance profile fitted to a flat, semi-infinite slab. This assumption introduces a systematic geometry…
Self-Verifying Measurement Records: Hash-Linked Evidence Graphs for Hardware Benchmarking
Faruk Alpay, Baris Basaran
Performance numbers reported for hardware are accepted on trust: the reader cannot recompute them, the apparatus is gone, and the silicon itself can be silently wrong, with fleet s…
Residual GPU Cache State on Apple M4 Pro
Faruk Alpay, Baris Basaran
Apple silicon exposes unified CPU-GPU memory, but the cache state left after a completed GPU command is not documented. This paper characterizes that phase boundary on a 14-core Ap…
Naturalness Predicts but Does Not Cause Transferability in Image Encodings of Real-World Streams
Faruk Alpay, Baris Basaran
A common practice converts a one-dimensional signal into an image so that a vision backbone pretrained on natural photographs can be reused for recognition, yet the encoded image i…
Exact Local Annotations for Regular Languages
Faruk Alpay, Baris Basaran
A regular language is recognized by a finite monoid, but a locally checkable explanation of that recognition can have a nontrivial update geometry. We study exact bounded-arity ann…
Unprivileged Topology Certificates for Cloud GPU Attestation
Faruk Alpay, Taylan Alpay
Cloud GPU tenants receive a model name and a region, but cannot directly inspect the physical accelerator that runs their job. We present a software-only attestation primitive for…
Non-Uniform L2 Cache Latency Across the Streaming Multiprocessors of an NVIDIA L40
Faruk Alpay, Baris Basaran
The NVIDIA L40 exposes a 96 MiB L2 cache usually modeled as one uniform pool with a single hit latency. We show this is wrong at the granularity a kernel sees: L2-hit latency depen…
Service-Cut Certificates for Aligned Eviction in Tiered Cache Networks
Faruk Alpay, Levent Sarioglu
In a tiered cache, eviction is a graph decision: removing one aligned storage block can disconnect downstream demand that never addressed that block directly, so request recency al…
Auditing Combinatorial Randomness from Finite Transcripts
Faruk Alpay, Levent Sarioglu
Public randomness is a security primitive whose deployed behavior is often observable only through a finite transcript. We study black-box auditing of -subset draws from lab…
Single-Event Upsets in 3D Gaussian Splatting Rendering: Bit-Level Criticality, Spatial Extent, and a Parallel Support Guard
Faruk Alpay, Baris Basaran
Three-dimensional Gaussian splatting is a standard real-time scene representation increasingly deployed on hardware exposed to transient faults, such as spaceborne processors and r…
Guarded Epoch Bloom Filters for Sliding-Window Membership
Faruk Alpay, Levent Sarioglu
Approximate membership queries in streams often need recent-window semantics rather than membership over all items ever seen. This paper studies guarded epoch Bloom filters, a slid…
Compute-Budgeted Exploitability Evidence Graphs for Prospective Vulnerability Triage
Faruk Alpay, Taylan Alpay
Defenders cannot patch every newly disclosed vulnerability at once, so exploitability prediction must be evaluated prospectively rather than retrospectively. We study compute-budge…
Proof-Carrying Multimodal Timelines: Finite-Trace Modal Certificates for Video-Audio Consistency
Faruk Alpay, Hamdi Alakkad
Multimodal video systems often expose clip-level scores while hiding the local temporal failure that makes a video inconsistent. We formulate video-audio consistency as finite-trac…
Rendering Separoid Information: Rate-Distortion Reconstruction of Convex Apartness Scenes
Faruk Alpay, Baris Basaran
A convex scene communicates more than shape: the pattern of which groups of objects are mutually apart and which cross is a discrete relational payload. We treat the apartness tabl…
