Title:
On the looseness of FO derandomization

Authors: Daniel J. Bernstein

Abstract:

This paper proves, for two examples of a randomized ROM PKE C, that derandomizing C degrades ROM OW-CPA security by a factor close to the number of hash queries. The first example can be explained by the size of the message space of C but the second cannot. This paper also gives a concrete example of a randomized non-ROM PKE C that appears to have the same properties regarding known attacks.
