We provide constructions of (m, 1)-programmable hash functions (PHFs) for m ≥ 2. Mimicking certain programmability properties of random oracles, PHFs can, e.g., be plugged into ...
The notion of strong designated verifier signature was put forth by Jakobsson, Sako and Impagliazzo in 1996, but the formal definition was defined recently by Saeednia, Kremer and...
Blind signatures (BS), introduced by Chaum, have become a cornerstone in privacy-oriented cryptography. Using hard lattice problems, such as the shortest vector problem, as the bas...
Non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs play an essential role in many cryptographic protocols. We suggest several NIZK proof systems based on prime order groups with a bilinear map...
Although malleability is undesirable in traditional digital signatures, schemes with limited malleability properties enable interesting functionalities that may be impossible to o...
