Abstract: Identity-based cryptography (IBC) can be applied to scenarios that involve a large number of public keys in each execution. In this paper, we propose an efficient identity-based ring signature scheme on lattices with signature size logarithmic to the cardinality of the ring. To this end, we first construct an efficient identity-based ring identification scheme by combining preimage sampling algorithms and a zero-knowledge proof system for a tree-based accumulator. Then we apply the Fiat-Shamir transformation and obtain a secure identity-based ring signature scheme. We prove its security in the random oracle model under the small integer solution assumption.

Keywords: identity-based ring identification; IBRI; accumulators; zero-knowledge proof of knowledge; ZKPoK.
