Abstract

This paper proposes a generalization of the discrete power function that can be used for constructing public-key cryptosystems. Particular cases of this function, with specific values for the encryption exponent, are used in RSA and Rabin cryptosystem. This paper provides a cryptosystem that can be built on a generalization of this function that holds for any value of the encryption exponent.
