Abstract. A t out of n threshold scheme is such that shares are distributed to n participants so that any set of t participants can compute the secret, whereas any set of less than...
In this paper, we investigate the gap between auxiliary-input zero-knowledge (AIZK) and blackbox-simulation zero-knowledge (BSZK). It is an interesting open problem whether or not ...
A potentially serious problem with current digital signature schemes is that their underlying hard problems from number theory may be solved by an innovative technique or a new gen...
This paper introduces three new probabilistic encryption schemes using elliptic curves over rings. The cryptosystems are based on three specific trapdoor mechanisms allowing the r...
