Title:
Multivariates Polynomials for Hashing

Authors: Jintai Ding, Bo-yin Yang

Abstract:

We propose the idea of building a secure hash using quadratic or higher degree multivariate polynomials over a finite field as the compression function, whose security relies on simple hard questions. We analyze some security properties and potential feasibility, where the compression functions are randomly chosen high-degree polynomials. Next, we propose to improve on the efficiency of the system by using some specially designed polynomials using composition of maps and certain sparsity property, where the security of the system would then relies on stronger assumptions.
