Bilinear Groups of Composite Order

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNSC,volume 4575))

Abstract

Bilinear groups of composite order are groups with an efficient bilinear map where the group order is a product of two large primes. Such groups are constructed from pairing friendly curves over a finite field. Composite order bilinear groups were recently used in a number of interesting cryptographic constructions. This talk will survey three applications:

  1. 1

    Private Information Retrieval

  2. 1

    Anonymous Identity Based Encryption

  3. 1

    Non-Interactive Zero Knowledge.
