AGMOS: Algebraic Group Model with Oblivious Sampling Helger Lipmaa Roberto Parisella Janno Siim
Cryptographic Groups Bracket notation for additive groups ? = ? , ? ?: ? = ? 1 (= ? ?), ? 1 , Hardness assumptions 1. ? 1,? is hard (DL assumption) 2. ? ? 1,?,? is hard (CDH assumption) 3. ? 1,?,?2, ,??is hard (?-PDL assumption) 2
Ideal models for Cryptographic Groups ? [?] GGM: generic group model [?] [?] Perfect unstructured group. Group elements are perfect encryptions of the exponent. 3
GGM Criticisms Un-instantiability results Does not capture group-specific algorithms Reductions can always program group elements, with random known exponents
Ideal Models for Cryptographic Groups [?, ,?] AGM: algebraic group model [FKL18] [?] ?,?,? [?] = ? ? + ? + ?[?] Adversaries provide a linear representation of their outputs, with respect to the group element they received on input 5
AGM Advantages Capture some known group-specific algorithms Proofs by reductions and Criticisms Un-instantiability result. Unclear relation between GGM and AGM Knowledge assumptions secure in AGM but not in the standard model.
Oblivious Sampling Sample group elements without knowing their DL. ? ?, ? superpolynomial min-entropy ??? ? = [?] DL on ???(?) is as hard as DL. Pr ??? ? = ? Example: encodings on elliptic curves ? ?,? ? 1 ,? ] 0
Spurious Knowledge Assumptions: example Extractor 1 ? ? 1 ? Used by reductions Hold in AGM (and GGM) Not hold in the standard model: 1. ? $ ? 2. ? = ???(?) If DL holds, no extractor can compute ?
Spurious Knowledge Assumptions: KZG 1,?,?2, ,?? ?(?) ? 1,?,?2, ,?? ?0,?1, ,?? ?(?) = ???? PLONK, Lunar: SNARKs with security proof based on this assumption
AGMOS: AGM with Oblivious Sampling Non-programmable oracle [?, ,?] ?,? ? ,s 1. ? $ ? 2. ? = ?(?) [?] ?,?,? ,?:? = ? ? + ? + ? ? + ?[?] Reduction does not know ?
Example: CDH AGMOS adversary ?,? $ ? [1,?,?] ?? ,?? ? ??,?? 1. ?? $ ?? 2. ?? = ?(??) ??,?? ? ,?,?,?, ? Adversary wins if ? = ? ? Algebraic adversary ? = ? 1 + ? ? + ?[?] + ????
Example: CDH holds in AGMOS Implicit verification polynomial ? ?,?,? = ? + ?? + ?? + ???? XY If adversary breaks CDH then ? ?,?, ? = 0 ? = ? ? ? = ? 1 + ? ? + ?[?] + ???? Case 1: ? ?,?,? 0 impossible Case2 : ? ?,?,? 0, but ? ?,?,? 0 successful reduction to DL Case 3: ? ?,?,? 0 Successful reduction to new TOFR assumption
,? -Tensor Oracle FindRep Assumption For a family of functions and a family of distributions ? the ( ,?)- TOFR assumption holds if for each PPT ? ?? ,?? ? ??,?? 1. ?? $ ?? 2. ?? = ?(??) ??,?? ? Pr ?01 + ????= 0 0
