Probabilistic Encryption
TLDR
It is proved that extracting any information about the cleartext from the cyphertext is hard on the average for an adversary with polynomially bounded computational resources.
A Digital Signature Scheme Secure Against Adaptive Chosen-Message Attacks
TLDR
A digital signature scheme based on the computational difficulty of integer factorization possesses the novel property of being robust against an adaptive chosen-message attack: an adversary who receives signatures for messages of his choice cannot later forge the signature of even a single additional message.
How to play ANY mental game
We present a polynomial-time algorithm that, given as a input the description of a game with incomplete information and any number of players, produces a protocol for playing the game that leaks no…
Algorand: Scaling Byzantine Agreements for Cryptocurrencies
TLDR
Experimental results show that Algorand confirms transactions in under a minute, achieves 125x Bitcoin's throughput, and incurs almost no penalty for scaling to more users.
How to construct random functions
TLDR
A constructive theory of randomness for functions, based on computational complexity, is developed, and a pseudorandom function generator is presented that has applications in cryptography, random constructions, and complexity theory.
The knowledge complexity of interactive proof-systems

Proofs that yield nothing but their validity or all languages in NP have zero-knowledge proof systems
In this paper the generality and wide applicability of Zero-knowledge proofs, a notion introduced by Goldwasser, Micali, and Rackoff is demonstrated. These are probabilistic and interactive proofs…

  • 16 November 1984
TLDR
A general algorithmic scheme for constructing polynomial-time deterministic algorithms that stretch a short secret random input into a long sequence of unpredictable pseudo-random bits is presented.
Verifiable random functions
TLDR
This work efficiently combines unpredictability and verifiability by extending the Goldreich-Goldwasser-Micali (1986) construction of pseudorandom functions f/sub s/ from a secret seed s to provide an NP-proof that the value f/ sub s/(x) is indeed correct without compromising the unpredictability of f/ Sub s/ at any other point for which no such a proof was provided.
