Abstract
Abstract. This paper describes a simple candidate one-way hash func-tion which satisfies a quasi-commutative property that allows it to be used aa an accumulator. This property allows protocols to be developed in which the need for a trusted central authority can be eliminated. Space-efficient distributed protocols are given for document time stamping and for membership testing, and many other applications are possible. 1
