✦ Synopsis


We show that the new pseudo-random number function, introduced recently by M. Naor and O. Reingold, possesses one more attractive and useful property. Namely, it is proved that for almost all values of parameters it produces a uniformly distributed sequence. The proof is based on some recent bounds of character sums with exponential functions.

A pseudo-random function is a fundamental cryptographic primitive that is essential for encryption, identification, and authentication. We present a new cryptographic primitive called pseudo-random synthesizer and show how to use it in order to get a parallel construction of a pseudo-random function

We show that, under some natural conditions, the pairs ðr; sÞ produced by the elliptic curve ElGamal signature scheme are uniformly distributed. In particular, this implies that values of r and s are not correlated. The result is based on some new estimates of exponential sums. For the ElGamal signa
