1-out-of-2 signature

Mirosław Kutyłowski, Jun Shao · 2011

We consider a scenario in which Alice entitles Bob to serve as her proxy with the right to sign one out of two possible documents, say m1 and m2. The protocol guarantees that the data given to Bob cannot be recognized as signatures of m1 and m2, unless Bob transforms them with his private key. The most important feature is, however, then if Bob finalizes both signatures (of m1 and of m2) - violating the delegated rights, then Bob's private key will be revealed to Alice. So we propose an undeniable proof of misbehavior instead of other means that turn out to be less effective and more difficult to implement.
