A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 8235 Title: Schnorr Non-interactive Zero-Knowledge Proof Author: F. Hao, Ed. Status: Informational Stream: Independent Date: September 2017 Mailbox: feng.hao@ncl.ac.uk Pages: 13 Characters: 27481 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-hao-schnorr-06.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8235 DOI: 10.17487/RFC8235 This document describes the Schnorr non-interactive zero-knowledge (NIZK) proof, a non-interactive variant of the three-pass Schnorr identification scheme. The Schnorr NIZK proof allows one to prove the knowledge of a discrete logarithm without leaking any information about its value. It can serve as a useful building block for many cryptographic protocols to ensure that participants follow the protocol specification honestly. This document specifies the Schnorr NIZK proof in both the finite field and the elliptic curve settings. INFORMATIONAL: This memo provides information for the Internet community.
