A shuffle of a set of ciphertexts is a new set of ciphertexts with the same plaintexts in permuted order. Shuffles of homomorphic encryptions are a key component in mix-nets, whic...
We investigate structural properties of interactive perfect zero-knowledge (PZK) proofs. Specifically, we look into the closure properties of PZK languages under monotone boolean ...

Abstract. Non-Interactive Zero Knowledge (NIZK), introduced by Blum, Feldman, and Micali in 1988, is a fundamental cryptographic primitive which has attracted considerable attentio...

We show how a polynomial-time prover can commit to an arbitrary finite set Ë of strings so that, later on, he can, for any string Ü, reveal with a proof whether Ü ¾ Ë or Ü ...
e an abstraction of zero-knowledge protocols that is le to a fully mechanized analysis. The abstraction is formalized within the applied pi-calculus using a novel equational theor...
