Identity Chains

چکیده
In this short technical summary, the authors describe how the mathematical primitives of Ring Confidential Transactions [Noe] may be used to provide anonymous identity authentication services in a similar manner to "Anonrep" [ZWC16] but in a trustless (or permissioned), distributed manner, and with the additional security and resilience provided by a blockchain. The use of the mathematics in the RingCT paper additionally, and importantly, allows for combining different types of authentication in a seamless manner, in essence if the Bitcoin or Monero blockchain is a single "thread," then the protocol here allows one to "weave" such threads together. The resulting protocol is dubbed an "Identity Chain" and provides anonymous authentication working in a lightweight and interoperable manner between any number of different service providers running different identity chains.

Linear Recurrences through Tilings and Markov Chains
We present a tiling interpretation for kth order linear recurrences, which yields new combinatorial proofs for recurrence identities. Moreover, viewing the tiling process as a Markov chain also yields closed form Binet-like expressions for these recurrences.
متن کاملIdentity Based Secure Routing For Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks
In this paper, we propose an Identity (ID)-based Secure Routing Scheme for secure routing in wireless ad-hoc networks. It make use of Identity based Signature scheme and hash chains to secure the AODV (Ad-hoc on demand distance vector routing) messages. We have used ID based Signature scheme for the immutable fields, that is the fields that remain same throughout the journey of the routing pack...
متن کاملSecure cloud computing with skidentity: A cloud-teamroom for the automotive industry
A major security-challenge in the automotive industry is to enable the secure and flexible engineering cooperation with changing partners in complex development projects. Therefore an effective interorganizational identity management is needed to control access to cooperative development platforms. This identity management has to be based on reliable identification of engineers of various partn...
متن کاملPDBselect 1992–2009 and PDBfilter-select
PDBselect (http://bioinfo.tg.fh-giessen.de/pdbselect/) is a list of representative protein chains with low mutual sequence identity selected from the protein data bank (PDB) to enable unbiased statistics. The list increased from 155 chains in 1992 to more than 4500 chains in 2009. PDBfilter-select is an online service to generate user-defined selections.
متن کاملZeon Algebra, Fock Space, and Markov Chains
Fock spaces over zeons are introduced. Trace identities and a noncommutative “integration-by-parts” formula are developed. As an application, we find a new criterion, without involving powers of the transition matrix, for a Markov chain to be ergodic.
