RLWE-based Zero-Knowledge Proofs for linear and multiplicative relations
We present efficient Zero-Knowledge Proofs of Knowledge (ZKPoK) for linear and multiplicative relations among secret messages hidden as Ring Learning With Errors (RLWE) samples. Messages are polynomials in \mathbb{Z}_q[x]/\left and our proposed protocols for a ZKPoK are based on the celebrated paper by Stern on identification schemes using coding problems (Crypto\u2793). Our -move protocol achieves a soundness error slightly above and perfect Zero-Knowledge.
As an application we present Zero-Knowledge Proofs of Knowledge of relations between committed messages. The resulting commitment scheme is perfectly binding with overwhelming probability over the choice of the public key, and computationally hiding under the RLWE assumption. Compared with previous Stern-based commitment scheme proofs we decrease computational complexity, improve the size of the parameters and reduce the soundness error of each round
Implementation and performance of a RLWE-based commitment scheme and ZKPoK for its linear and multiplicative relations
In this paper we provide the implementation details and performance analysis of the lattice-based post-quantum commitment scheme introduced by MartĂnez and Morillo in their work titled «RLWE-Based Zero-Knowledge Proofs for Linear and Multiplicative Relations» together with the corresponding Zero-Knowledge Proofs of Knowledge (ZKPoK) of valid openings, linear and multiplicative relations among committed elements. We bridge the gap between the existing theoretical proposals and practical applications, thoroughly revisiting the security proofs of the aforementioned paper to obtain tight conditions that allow us to find the best sets of parameters for actual instantiations of the commitment scheme and its companion ZKPoK. Our implementation is very flexible and its parameters can be adjusted to obtain a trade-off between speed and memory usage, analyzing how suitable for practical use are the underlying lattice-based techniques. Moreover, our implementation further extends the literature of exact Zero-Knowledge proofs, providing ZKPoK of committed elements without any soundness slack

Messages are polynomials in \mathbb{Z}_q[x]/\left and our proposed protocols for a ZKPoK are based on the celebrated paper by Stern on identification schemes using coding problems (Crypto'93). Our 5-moves protocol achieves a soundness error slightly above 1/2 and perfect Zero-Knowledge.
