However, it is universally regarded as a difficult task, as in the Knapsack cryptosystems, to design a secure MPKC scheme （especially an encryption scheme） employing the existing trapdoor construction. In this paper, we propose a new key-exchange scheme and an MPKC scheme based on the Morphism of Polynomials （MP） problem. The security of the proposed schemes is provably reducible to the conjectured intractability of a new difficult problem, namely the Decisional Multivariate Diffie-Hellman （DMDH） problem derived from the MP problem. The proposed key agreement is one of several non-number-theory-based protocols, and is a candidate for use in the post-quantum era. More importantly, by slightly modifying the protocol, we offer an original approach to designing a secure MPKC scheme. Furthermore, the proposed encryption scheme achieves a good tradeoff between security and efficiency, and seems competitive with traditional MPKC schemes.展开更多

The existed signcryption schemes from discrete logarithm and bilinear paring are facing the serious threats. Based on multivariate public key cryptography, a new certificateless multi-receiver hybrid signcryption scheme has been proposed. The proposal reduced the cipher text and could handle arbitrary length messages by employing randomness reusing and hybrid encryption, as well as keeping security. In the random oracle model, the scheme＇s confidentiality could withstand the IND-CCA2 adversary and its unforgeability could withstand the UF-CMA adversary under the hardness of multivariat quadratic （MQ） problem and isomorphism of polynomials （IP） assumption.
