### Proving for a single input vs several inputs. Is there any difference?

I am working on a new protocol for pattern matching. While defining the ideal functionality, it is possible to say: Alice sends $p$ and Bob sends $T$ to the ideal functionality. i.e. searching for ...

### How do I check if the secret key polynomial of the ATV-FHE (NTRU based) scheme is invertible?

I want to implement the ATV-FHE scheme as described here https://eprint.iacr.org/2014/039.pdf. To generate the secret key polynomial I compute f = 2*u + 1 , with scheme parameters chosen such that ...

### References for combining LFSRs with different lengths and taps?

I started learning streams ciphers with the use of LFSRs. Therefore, I tried to simulate what I am learning in a C sourcecode, which combines three registers and ...

### How to sign an Elliptic curve point using an ECC signature scheme

In Shnorr based ECC signature scheme, a message M is signed with the private key sk as s=sk.h(M,R)+k where R=k.P and P is a base point. If M is a point (x,y) \in E_p(a,b), how we can sign M in this ...

### Are there key collisions in AES-192, AES-256?

Suppose we have a single, fixed plaintext block $p$ of 128 bits. Call the set of all possible 128 bit blocks $B$. We could define fixed plaintext AES-128 as a function $f(k) \to B$ that takes a 128 ...

### Which parameters of the ATV-FHE scheme should be kept private?

I try to implement the ATV-FHE scheme as it is described in section 2 of this paper. I also read this paper that says how parameters should be chosen. Are there some parameters that must be kept ...

### Zero knowledge proof of bilinear equation

Suppose A and B have pre-shared a secret key $r$. Is there a way for A to prove that $p=[e(a,b)e(g^{c_i},b)]^r$ has been correctly computed with this $r$ but without knowing or revealing either a,b or ...

### Where can I find a versatile PKI and library leveraging curve25519?

I note that Things that use Curve25519 provides a long list of protocols, software, and libraries that leverage curve25519, but I'm wondering if there is any such software that more fully implements a ...

### Simple two round feistel chiffre

I am currently learning for a exam in cryptgraphy. I now try to understand the Feistel Cipher with two rounds. I do not have any information on what the functions are actually doing. The following ...

### 2 round GOST_28147-89 cipher distinguisher

So, here is the scheme of how this will look graphically: The deal is to present distinguisher for this cipher. First of all here is my drafts: Way 1 Assume that distinguisher displays in ...

### Decrypt using OpenSSL produces packing errors

I am receiving an encrypted file and it's key from a partner. The Key has itself been encrypted using our Digital Certificate Public Key, though I don't know exactly how. The partner has instructed me ...
Let us consider $E$ an encryption algorithm that encrypts a message $m$ into a ciphertext $c$ using a key $K_e$. i.e $c = E(K_e, m)$. Similarly, decryption is achieved by $m = D(K_d, c)$. Is there ...
