Interactive oracle proofs

E Ben-Sasson, A Chiesa, N Spooner - … 2016-B, Beijing, China, October 31 …, 2016 - Springer
We initiate the study of a proof system model that naturally combines interactive proofs (IPs)
and probabilistically-checkable proofs (PCPs), and generalizes interactive PCPs (which …

An efficient parallel repetition theorem

J Håstad, R Pass, D Wikström, K Pietrzak - Theory of Cryptography: 7th …, 2010 - Springer
We present a general parallel-repetition theorem with an efficient reduction. As a corollary of
this theorem we establish that parallel repetition reduces the soundness error at an …

Non-black-box simulation from one-way functions and applications to resettable security

KM Chung, R Pass, K Seth - Proceedings of the forty-fifth annual ACM …, 2013 - dl.acm.org
The simulation paradigm, introduced by Goldwasser, Micali and Rackoff, is of fundamental
importance to modern cryptography. In a breakthrough work from 2001, Barak (FOCS'01) …

On the concurrent composition of quantum zero-knowledge

P Ananth, KM Chung, RLL Placa - … 2021, Virtual Event, August 16–20 …, 2021 - Springer
We study the notion of zero-knowledge secure against quantum polynomial-time verifiers
(referred to as quantum zero-knowledge) in the concurrent composition setting. Despite …

Resettable Statistical Zero-Knowledge for 

S Kiyoshima - Annual International Cryptology Conference, 2024 - Springer
Resettable statistical zero-knowledge [Garg–Ostrovsky–Visconti–Wadia, TCC 2012] is a
strong privacy notion that guarantees statistical zero-knowledge even when the prover uses …

Stateless cryptographic protocols

V Goyal, HK Maji - 2011 IEEE 52nd Annual Symposium on …, 2011 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Secure computation protocols inherently involve multiple rounds of interaction among the
parties where, typically a party has to keep a state about what has happened in the protocol …

Public-coin concurrent zero-knowledge in the global hash model

R Canetti, H Lin, O Paneth - Theory of Cryptography Conference, 2013 - Springer
Public-coin zero-knowledge and concurrent zero-knowledge (cZK) are two classes of zero
knowledge protocols that guarantee some additional desirable properties. Still, to this date …

Resettably sound zero-knowledge arguments from OWFs-the (semi) black-box way

R Ostrovsky, A Scafuro… - Theory of Cryptography …, 2015 - Springer
We construct a constant round resettably-sound zero knowledge argument of knowledge
based on black-box use of any one-way function. Resettable-soundness was introduced by …

Public-coin parallel zero-knowledge for NP

R Pass, A Rosen, WLD Tseng - Journal of cryptology, 2013 - Springer
We show that, assuming the existence of collision-resistant hash functions, every language
in NP has a constant-round public-coin zero-knowledge argument that remains secure …

Private coins versus public coins in zero-knowledge proof systems

R Pass, M Venkitasubramaniam - Theory of Cryptography Conference, 2010 - Springer
Abstract Goldreich-Krawczyk (Siam J of Comp'96) showed that only languages in BPP have
constant-round public-coin black-box zero-know-ledge protocols. We extend their lower …
