This paper investigates the possibility of disposing of interaction between prover and verifier
in a zero-knowledge proof if they share beforehand a short random string. Without any …

its Applications,” which appeared in the proceedings of the 20th Annual … Thus, we may …

… for interactive zero-knowledge protocols. However, while for interactive zeroknowledge we
know how to construct statistical zero-knowledge argument systems for all NP languages, for …

show how it may be constructed in that setting from a non-interactive zeroknowledge proof …

… However, in a multiparty setting, perhaps not surprisingly, the standard two-party definition
of ZK does not guarantee what we would intuitively expect from “zero knowledge’: that the …
