The Limited Verifier Signature and Its Application (Special Section on Cryptography and Information Security)

概要

論文の詳細を見る
In ordinary digital signature schemes, anyone can verify signatures with signer's public key. However it is not necessary for anyone to be convinced a justification of signer's dishonorable message such as a bill. It is enough for a receiver only to convince outsiders of signature's justification if the signer does not execute a contract. On the other hand there exist messages such as official documents which will be first treated as limited verifier signatures but after a few years as ordinary digital signatures. We will propose a limited verifier signature scheme based on Horster-Michels-Petersen's authenticated encryption schemes, and show that our limited verifier signature scheme is more efficient than Chaum-Antwerpen undeniable signature schemes in a certain situation. And we will propose a convertible limited verifier signature scheme based on our limited verifier signature scheme, and show that our convertible limited verifier signature scheme is more efficient than Boyar-Chaum-Damgard-Pedersen convertible undeniable signature schemes in a certain situation.
