Multireceiver authentication codes allow one sender to construct an authenticated message for a group of receivers such that each receiver can verify authenticity of the received message. In this paper, we give a formal dee-nition of multireceiver authentication codes, derive information theoretic and combinatorial lower bounds on their performance and give new eecient and exible constructions ...
