|
||||
For cryptographic purpose, pairings are usually defined over elliptic curves, hence $\GT$ is a multiplicative subgroup of the multiplicative group of a finite field.
|
||||
|
||||
Most standard assumptions over pairings are derived from the equivalent of the Diffie-Hellman assumptions from cyclic groups,
|
||||
%defined in Definition~\ref{de:DDH}.
|
||||
defined as follows.
|
||||
defined in Definition~\ref{de:DDH} and recalled here.

Let $\GG$ be a cyclic group of order $p$. The \emph{decisional Diffie-Hellman} ($\DDH$) problem is the following.
|
||||
Given $(g, g^a, g^b, g^c) \in \GG^4$, the goal is to decide if $c = ab$ or if $c$ is sampled uniformly in $\GG$.
|
||||
|
||||
The DDH assumption is the intractability of the problem for any $\ppt$ algorithm.
|
||||
|
||||
Let us now define the $\DDH$ language as
|
||||
$L_\DDH = \bigl\{ (g, g^a, g^b, g^{c}) \in \GG^4 \mid c = a \cdot b \bigr\}.$
|
||||
Thus the $\DDH$ problem is equivalently the question of whether $L_\DDH \in \mathsf{PP}$ or not.

This hypothesis, from which the Diffie-Hellman key exchange relies its security on, is then used to defined the $\SXDH$ assumption.
