One-Way Functions, Hard on Average Problems, and Statistical Zero-Knowledge Proofs

Abstract Rafail Ostrovskyy MIT Laboratory for Computer Science 545 Technology Square, Cambridge, MA 02139 In this paper, we study connections among one-way functions, hard on the average problems, and statistical zero-knowledge proofs. In particular, we show how these three notionsare related andhowthe third notion can be better characterized, assuming the rst one.
