A structured multi-signature scheme and its security proof

Chongyan Han, Hongqi Zhang, Bin Zhang, Yan Yang · 2010

A new structured multi-signature scheme is proposed based on a sequential multi-signature scheme. The advantages of the proposed scheme are as follows: the multi-signature is a co-signature which is generated by multiple signers in collaborative, rather than accumulating per signer's single signature; the order of signature doesn't need to be fixed beforehand; any secret messages can be transmitted between different signers with confidentiality and integrality guarantee in the scheme; the length of signature is independent of signer's number. The proposed scheme can against existing attacks to multi-signature. The security of scheme is proved based on the difficulty assumption of factoring and quadratic residue in the random oracle model.
