zeekay f4ee7a0525 Publish under the org, not a person
Bylines, paper authorship, correspondence addresses and the founder blurb under
each post named an individual. They name the organisation that published the
work instead: the brand on posts and pages, the research byline on papers, and
research@ in place of a personal address. Both are what these repositories
already used elsewhere — nothing new was coined.

Co-authors are untouched. Where a paper named someone else alongside, they stay
named; only the one byline changed. Bibliography entries, running heads,
PDF metadata and affiliations move with it, so a citation still resolves to
whoever the cited paper names.

Sample and fixture data uses the placeholder name these tests already use
elsewhere, so no assertion changed meaning.

\begin{abstract}
We present Lux Warp Messaging (LWM), a cross-appchain communication protocol that enables trustless message passing between sovereign blockchains within the Lux Network ecosystem. LWM leverages BLS aggregate signatures over the BLS12-381 curve to achieve compact, efficiently verifiable proofs of cross-chain messages without requiring a trusted relay chain or committee. A message originating on a source appchain is signed by a quorum of the source appchain's validators; the aggregate signature, together with a bitmap identifying signers and their stake weights, constitutes a succinct proof verifiable on any destination appchain. We formalize the protocol's security properties, proving that message authenticity holds under a $2/3$ honest-stake assumption and that liveness is preserved as long as at least $2/3$ of the source appchain's weighted validators are online. We introduce an optimistic delivery mode that reduces end-to-end latency from $O(\Delta_{\text{finality}})$ to $O(\Delta_{\text{block}})$ by allowing relayers to submit messages before full finality, with a dispute window for fraud proofs. Empirical benchmarks demonstrate that LWM achieves sub-second cross-appchain message verification with aggregate signature sizes of 48 bytes regardless of the number of signers, and total message overhead below 500 bytes for appchains with up to 1,000 validators.
