Cryptoschemes Based on Difficulty of Simultaneous Solving Two Different Difficult Problems.

The paper proposes a general method for construction cryptoschemes based on difficulty of simultaneous solving factoring (FP) and discrete logarithm modulo prime problem (DLpP). The proposed approach is applicable for construction digital signatures (usual, blind, collective), public key encryption algorithms, public key distribution protocols, and cryptoschemes of other types. Moreover, the proposed approach provides reducing the signature size and increasing the rate of the cryptoschemes, while comparing with the known designs of the digital signature protocols based on the FP and DLpP.
