Abstract: We present and compare definitions of the notion of "statistically
hiding" protocols, and we propose a novel statistically hiding commitment
scheme. Informally, a protocol statistically hides a secret if a
computationally unlimited adversary who conducts the protocol with
the owner of the secret learns almost nothing about it. One definition
is based on the L 1 -norm distance between probability distributions,
the other on information theory. We prove that the two definitions are
essentially... (Update)
