Abstract

A secure self-bilinear map is attractive since it can be naturally extended to a secure multi-linear map which has versatile applications in cryptography. However, it was known that a self-bilinear map on a cyclic group of a known order cannot be cryptographically secure. In 2014, Yamakawa et al. presented a self-bilinear map, the YYHK pairing, on unknown order groups by using an indistinguishability obfuscator as a building block. In this paper, we prove that the Pairing Inversion (PI) of the YYHK pairing is equivalently hard to the factorization of RSA modulus N as long as iO in the scheme is an indistinguishability obfuscator. First, we prove that the General Pairing Inversion (GPI) of the YYHK pairing e: G×G → G is always solvable. By using the solvability of GPI, we prove that PI and BDHP for the YYHK-pairing e are equivalently hard to CDHP in the cyclic group G. This equivalence concludes that PI for the YYHK-pairing is equivalently hard to the factorization of N.
