will speak on
Practically efficient zero knowledge proofs of correctness
of computations, and financial cryptography
Abstract
We present a highly efficient method for proving correctness
of computations while preserving secrecy of all input and intermediate
values.This is done in an Evaluator-Prover model which can also be
realized by a secure processor. Applications to secure auctions
will be presented.
Joint work with Rocco Servedio and Chris Thorpe.
The lecture will take place
