Implementation and Optimization of Zero-Knowledge Proof Circuit Based on Hash Function SM3
With the increasing demand for privacy protection in the blockchain, the universal zero-knowledge proof protocol has been developed and widely used. Because hash function is an important cryptographic primitive in a blockchain, the zero-knowledge proof ...

Disjunctions for Hash Proof Systems: New Constructions and Applications [PDF]
Hash Proof Systems were first introduced by Cramer and Shoup (Eurocrypt’02) as a tool to construct efficient chosen-ciphertext-secure encryption schemes. Since then, they have found many other applications, including password authenticated key exchange, oblivious transfer, and zero-knowledge arguments.

Key Encapsulation Mechanisms from Extractable Hash Proof Systems, Revisited [PDF]
In CRYPTO 2010, Wee proposed the notion of ‘‘extractable hash proof systems” (XHPS), and its richer version, ‘‘all-but-one XHPS” (ABO-XHPS), and showed that chosen ciphertext secure (CCA secure) key encapsulation mechanisms (KEM) can be constructed from them.

Leakage-Resilient Chosen-Ciphertext Secure Public-Key Encryption from Hash Proof System and One-Time Lossy Filter [PDF]
We present a new generic construction of a public-key encryption (PKE) scheme secure against leakage-resilient chosen-ciphertext attacks (LR-CCA), from any Hash Proof System (HPS) and any one-time lossy filter (OT-LF). Efficient constructions of HPSs and OT-LFs from the DDH and DCR assumptions suggest that our construction is a practical approach to LR-
