Abstract

In this paper, we propose the concept of a relinkable ring signature, which is a ring signature with ring reformation function, i.e., a signer can delegate ring reformation ability separately from signing ability to his/her proxy. The relinkable ring signature can be applicable to proxy ring reformation, anonymization of past-generated signature, or ring signature for dynamic group. We also propose a concrete relinkable ring signature scheme that uses pairing in the random oracle model.
