Abstract

A new notion of soundness in bare public-key (BPK) model is presented. This new notion just lies in between one-time soundness and sequential soundness and its reasonableness is justified in the context of resettable zero-knowledge when resettable zero-knowledge prover is implemented by smart card.

This research is supported by research grants of City University of Hong Kong (No. 7001023 and 7001232) and a grant from the Research Grant Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, China (Project No. CityU1056/01E).
