Holographic Session Links: A Post-Quantum Communication Protocol Based on Cognitive State Resonance
Maciej Mazur
Abstract
We propose **Holographic Session Links (HSL)** — a post-quantum communication protocol in which network routing, access control, and message authentication emerge from the algebraic resonance between communicating nodes' cognitive state polynomials, rather than from external certificates, address spaces, or permission systems. In HSL, a message from node $A$ to node $B$ is decryptable **if and only if** node $B$'s session polynomial $s_B$ is algebraically resonant with the sender's session polynomial $s_A$. If resonance fails, the payload does not trigger an "access denied" response — it **collapses into irreversible thermodynamic noise** indistinguishable from the Ring-LWE error distribution. No routing table, no certificate authority, no firewall rule can prevent or simulate this collapse. The protocol extends **Holographic Session Spaces (HSS)** [Mazur, 2026a] from single-node process isolation to multi-node cognitive networks. Security is not a layer applied to communication — it is a **topological property of the communication space itself**.
