笔记

We introduce a short signature scheme based on the Computational Diffie-Hellman assumption on certain elliptic and hyper-elliptic curves. The signature length is half the size of a DSA signature for a similar level of security. Our short signature scheme is designed for systems where signatures are typed in by a human or signatures are sent over a low-bandwidth channel.

我们提出了一种基于某些椭圆曲线和超椭圆曲线上的计算Diffie-Hellman假设(Computational Diffie-Hellman assumption)的短签名方案。该签名的长度是与相似安全级别的DSA签名长度的一半。我们的短签名方案旨在用于需要由人类输入签名或在低带宽通道上发送签名的系统。
