Post-Quantum Blind Signature Protocol on Non-Commutative Algebras

Abstract

A method for constructing a blind signature scheme based on a hidden discrete logarithm problem defined in finite non-commutative associative algebras is proposed. Blind signature protocols are constructed using four-dimensional and six-dimensional algebras defined over a ground finite field GF(p) and containing a global two-sided unit as an algebraic support. The basic properties of the used algebra, which determine the choice of protocol parameters, are described.
