The Feistel-network is a popular structure underlying many block-ciphers where the cipher is constructed from many simpler rounds, each defined by some function which is derived fr...

We show that although unconditionally secure quantum bit commitment is impossible, it can be based upon any family of quantum one-way permutations. The resulting scheme is uncondit...
We revisit the deļ¬nition of unforgeability of blind signatures as proposed by Pointcheval and Stern (Journal of Cryptology 2000). Surprisingly, we show that this established deļ¬...
Abstract. It is almost a folklore-knowledge that hash-based time-stamping schemes are secure if the underlying hash function is collisionresistant but still no rigorous proofs have...
