In order to build more secure bit commitment schemes, this paper gave a survey of the new coming braid-based cryptography and then brought forward the first braid-based bit commitment protocol. The security proof manifests that the proposed protocol is computationally binding and information-theoretically hiding. Furthermore, the proposed protocol is also invulnerable to currently known quantum attacks.展开更多

This paper presents a new practical bit commitment scheme based on Schnorr's one-time knowledge proof scheme,where the use of cut-and-choose method and many random exam candidates in the protocols are replaced by a single challenge number. Therefore the proposed bit commitment scheme is more efficient and practical than the previous schemes In addition, the security of the proposed scheme under factoring assumption is proved, thus the cryptographic basis of the proposed scheme is clarified.展开更多

They are provably secure based on pseudo-random synthesizers. In these schemes, the sender may be unbounded to polynomial time and the receiver is bounded. The advantage of these schemes is that the secure parameter may be small.展开更多
文摘With recent advances of quantum computanon, new threats key cryptosystems. In order to build more secure bit commitment schemes, this paper gave a survey of the new coming braid-based cryptography and then brought forward the first braid-based bit commitment protocol. The security proof manifests that the proposed protocol is computationally binding and information-theoretically hiding. Furthermore, the proposed protocol is also invulnerable to currently known quantum attacks.
