In order to avoid the weakness and susceptive linear design, an improvement by means of two mechanisms including quadratic residue and composite discrete logarithm is proposed, which can defeat the forgery attacks in Ma and Chen scheme. The new scheme remains good confidentiality, public verifiability and efficiency.展开更多

A probabilistic encryption algorithm is generally adopted in public-key encryption protocols. Here we consider the way it increases the unicity distance of both classical and quantum private-key encryption schemes. The security of quantum probabilistic privatekey encryption schemes against two kinds of attacks is analyzed. By using the no-signalling postulate, we show that the scheme can resist attack to the key. The scheme's security against plaintext attack is also investigated by considering the information-theoretic indistinguishability of the encryption scheme. Finally, we make a conjecture regarding Breidbart's attack.展开更多

The scheme is publicly verifiable and the fairness can be guaranteed. Lottery players not only provide seed numbers to create the initial value of the lucky number, but also have an opportunity to change the intermediate value of the lucky number by means of voting. The new property of the scheme makes the lottery game more interactive and attractive to players. The anonymity of submitting the lottery ticket and casting the vote is achieved. Comparison with other existing elottery schemes is given.展开更多
