<h3>Setup</h3>
|
||
|
||
<p>Let <span class="math inline">\(G\)</span> be the generator of an EC group.
|
||
We use a hash function <span class="math inline">\(\mathcal{H}_p\)</span>, which maps to curve points in EC, and a normal hash <span class="math inline">\(\mathcal{H}_n\)</span>, which maps to <span class="math inline">\(\mathbb{Z}_p\)</span>.
|
||
Signer’s key pair: <span class="math inline">\(k_{\pi}\)</span>, s.t. <span class="math inline">\(K_{\pi} = k_{\pi} \cdot G \in \mathcal{R}\)</span>, with secret index <span class="math inline">\(\pi\)</span>.
|
||
Set of Public Keys: <span class="math inline">\(\mathcal{R} = \{ K_1, K_2, \ldots, K_n \}\)</span></p>
|
||
|
||
<pre><code class="language-python">def new_key():
|
||
k = F.random_element()
|
||
K = g * k # g is the generator of the EC group
|
||
return K
|
||
</code></pre>
|
||
|
||
<h3>Signature</h3>
|
||
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li><p>compute key image: <span class="math inline">\(\tilde{K} = k_{\pi} \mathcal{H_p} ( K_{\pi}) \in G\)</span></p>
|
||
|
||
<pre><code class="language-python">key_image = k * hashToPoint(K)
|
||
</code></pre></li>
|
||
|
||
<li><p>Generate <span class="math inline">\(\alpha \in^R \mathbb{Z}_p\)</span>, and <span class="math inline">\(r_i \in^R \mathbb{Z}_p\)</span>, for <span class="math inline">\(i \in \{1, 2, \ldots, n \}\)</span>, with <span class="math inline">\(i \neq \pi\)</span></p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><p><span class="math inline">\(r_i\)</span> is used for the fake responses</p>
|
||
|
||
<pre><code class="language-python">a = F.random_element()
|
||
r = [None] * len(R)
|
||
for i in range(0, len(R)):
|
||
if i==pi:
|
||
continue
|
||
|
||
|
||
r[i] = mod(F.random_element(), p)
|
||
</code></pre></li>
|
||
</ul></li>
|
||
|
||
<li><p>Compute <span class="math inline">\(c_{\pi + 1} = \mathcal{H}_n ( m, [\alpha G], [\alpha \mathcal{H}_p(K_{\pi})])\)</span></p>
|
||
|
||
<pre><code class="language-python">c[pi1] = hash(R, m, a * g, hashToPoint(R[pi]) * a, p)
|
||
</code></pre></li>
|
||
|
||
<li><p>for <span class="math inline">\(i=\pi + 1, \pi +2, \ldots, n, 1, 2, \ldots, \pi -1\)</span>, calculate, replacing <span class="math inline">\(n+1 \rightarrow 1\)</span>

$<span class="math inline">\(

<li>Notice that (from step 3 & 4):<br>

<span class="math inline">\(\alpha \mathcal{H}_p (K_{\pi}) = r_{\pi} \mathcal{H}_p (K_{\pi}) + c_{\pi} \cdot (\tilde{K})\)</span>,<br>
|
||
where <span class="math inline">\(\tilde{K}= k_{\pi} \mathcal{H_p} ( K_{\pi})\)</span>, so:<br>
|

<span class="math inline">\(\alpha \mathcal{H}_p (K_{\pi}) = r_{\pi} \mathcal{H}_p (K_{\pi}) + c_{\pi} \cdot (k_{\pi} \mathcal{H}_p(K_{\pi}))\)</span><br>

which is equal to,<br>
|

<span class="math inline">\(\alpha \cdot \mathcal{H}_p (K_{\pi}) = (r_{\pi} + c_{\pi} \cdot k_{\pi}) \cdot \mathcal{H}_p(K_{\pi})\)</span><br>
|
||
From where we can see: <span class="math inline">\(\alpha = r_{\pi} + c_{\pi} \cdot k_{\pi}\)</span><br>
|
||
which we can rearrange to
|
||
<span class="math inline">\(r_{\pi} = \alpha - c_{\pi} \cdot k_{\pi}\)</span>.<br><br></li>
