On the Uniform Distribution of Strings
In this paper, we propose the definition of a measure for sets of strings of length not greater than a given number. This measure leads to an instanciation of the uniform distribut...

Cryptography from Sunspots: How to Use an Imperfect Reference String
The Common Reference String (CRS) model equips all protocol participants with a common string that is sampled from a pre-specified distribution, say the uniform distribution. Thi...

String Distances and Uniformities
Abstract. The Levenstein or edit distance was developed as a metric for calculating distances between character strings. We are looking at weighting the different edit operations (...

A comparison of two approaches to pseudorandomness
The concept of pseudorandomness plays an important role in cryptography. In this note, we contrast the notions of complexity-theoretic pseudorandom strings (from algorithmic infor...
