Rate 1 - Linear Time and Additively Homomorphic UC Commitments

Explore a 23-minute conference talk from Crypto 2016 on rate 1, linear time, and additively homomorphic UC commitments. Delve into commitment schemes, their applications, and universal composability. Examine homomorphism, rate, and related concepts within a general framework. Investigate theoretical results, compare findings, and learn about building blocks. Understand the setup phase, commit phase, and practical implications of this cryptographic research presented by Ignacio Cascudo, Ivan Damgård, Bernardo David, Nico Döttling, and Jesper Buus Nielsen.
