Zero Knwoledge Proofs and Protocols
Abstract
A proof is whatever convinces me.
Shimon Even, 1978.
A Zero-knowledge proof is an usual proof, but you must not give more information to the verifier
than your statement (which you prove) can give alone. So, in this paper, some facts about
zero-knowledge, interactive protocols and proofs will be given. Also, with examples.
