چکیده

This paper describes a simple candidate one-way hash function which satis es a quasi-commutative property that allows it to be used as an accumulator. This property allows protocols to be developed in which the need for a trusted central authority can be eliminated. Space-e cient distributed protocols are given for document time stamping and for membership testing, and many other applications are possible.

One - way Accumulators : A Decentralized Alternative to Digital Signatures ( Extended Abstract )

This paper describes a simple candidate one-way hash function which satisfies a quasi-commutative property that allows it to be used aa an accumulator. This property allows protocols to be developed in which the need for a trusted central authority can be eliminated. Spaceefficient distributed protocols are given for document time stamping and for membership testing, and many other applications...

An Analysis of Circulation of Decentralized Digital Money in Quantum Electrodynamics Space: the Econphysics Approach

The study aimed at showing how to create and release cryptocurrency, based on which one can introduce a new generation of this money that can continue its life in the quantum computers space and study whether cryptocurrency could be controlled or the rules should be rewritten in line with new technology. Regarding this, we showed the evolution of money and its uses in economic relations. Accord...

Collision-Free Accumulators and Fail-Stop Signature Schemes Without Trees

One-way accumulators, introduced by Benaloh and de Mare, can be used to accumulate a large number of values into a single one, which can then be used to authenticate every input value without the need to transmit the others. However, the one-way property does is not suucient for all applications. In this paper, we generalize the deenition of accumulators and deene and construct a collision-free...

A Dynamic Digital Signature Scheme Without Third Parties

We propose a digital signature scheme for dynamic coalitions. Particularly, we enable members to join and leave. Our scheme does not need trusted or oblivious third parties (TTPs or OTPs). In this distributed scheme there is a changing secret group key dependent on the members in the group. Each member’s secret key remains the same for all group compositions. The downside of this approach is th...

Overview of Colored Coins

Bitcoin ([3]) is the world’s first decentralized digital currency, allowing the easy storage and transfer of cryptographic tokens. It uses a peer-to-peer network to carry information, hashing as a synchronization signal to prevent double-spending, and a powerful scripting system to determine ownership of the tokens. There is a growing technology and business infrastructure supporting it. By the...
