Quirky Interactive Reductions of Knowledge

ePrint Report: Quirky Interactive Reductions of Knowledge

Joseph Johnston

Interactive proofs and arguments of knowledge can be generalized to the concept of interactive reductions of knowledge, where proving knowledge of a witness for one NP language is reduced to proving knowledge of a witness for another NP language. We take this generalization and specialize it to a class of reductions we refer to as `quirky interactive reductions of knowledge' (or QUIRKs). This name reflects our particular design choices within the …
