Pull request overview
Updates the Algorand specs to define and integrate post-quantum transaction authorization (pqsig), including new domain separators, logic-signature delegation semantics, root-key taxonomy, and an added fee surcharge model for PQ-authorized transactions.
Changes:
- Define
pqsigauthorization (including PQ address derivation, delegation, and fee surcharge) and integrate it into Ledger authorization rules. - Add new domain separators (
PQA,PQProgram,PQK) and update AVM logic-signature mode docs for PQ delegation. - Update Keys specs to reflect root-key material types (Ed25519, multisig, lsig, and post-quantum).
