A detailed analysis of Fiat-Shamir with aborts

J Devevey, P Fallahpour, A Passelègue… - Annual International …, 2023 - Springer
Lyubashevky's signatures are based on the Fiat-Shamir with Aborts paradigm. It transforms
an interactive identification protocol that has a non-negligible probability of aborting into a …

Online-extractability in the quantum random-oracle model

We show the following generic result: When a quantum query algorithm in the quantum
random-oracle model outputs a classical value t that is promised to be in some tight relation …

Haetae: Shorter lattice-based fiat-shamir signatures

JH Cheon, H Choe, J Devevey, T Güneysu… - IACR Transactions on …, 2024 - metalla.org
We present HAETAE (Hyperball bimodAl modulE rejecTion signAture schemE), a new lattice-

Signature schemes based on the MPC-in-the-head approach (MPCitH) have either been
designed by taking a proof system and selecting a suitable symmetric-key primitive (Picnic …

Post-quantum security of the Even-Mansour cipher

G Alagic, C Bai, J Katz, C Majenz - … on the Theory and Applications of …, 2022 - Springer
Abstract The Even-Mansour cipher is a simple method for constructing a (keyed)
pseudorandom permutation E from a public random permutation P:{0, 1} n→{0, 1} n. It is …

On the (in) security of the BUFF transform

J Don, S Fehr, YH Huang, P Struck - Annual International Cryptology …, 2024 - Springer
The BUFF transform is a generic transformation for digital signature schemes, with the
purpose of obtaining additional security properties beyond standard unforgeability, eg …

Probabilistic hash-and-sign with retry in the quantum random oracle model

H Kosuge, K Xagawa - IACR International Conference on Public-Key …, 2024 - Springer
A hash-and-sign signature based on a preimage-sampleable function (Gentry et al., STOC
2008) is secure in the quantum random oracle model if the preimage-sampleable function is …

Cutting the grass: threshold group action signature schemes

M Battagliola, G Borin, A Meneghetti… - Cryptographers' Track at …, 2024 - Springer
Group actions are fundamental mathematical tools, with a long history of use in
cryptography. Indeed, the action of finite groups at the basis of the discrete logarithm …

G+ G: a Fiat-Shamir lattice signature based on convolved Gaussians

J Devevey, A Passelègue, D Stehlé - … on the Theory and Application of …, 2023 - Springer
We describe an adaptation of Schnorr's signature to the lattice setting, which relies on
Gaussian convolution rather than flooding or rejection sampling as previous approaches. It …

Merkle tree ladder mode: reducing the size impact of NIST PQC signature algorithms in practice

A Fregly, J Harvey, BS Kaliski Jr, S Sheth - Cryptographers' Track at the …, 2023 - Springer
