Class BCRainbowPublicKey

java.lang.Object

org.bouncycastle.pqc.jcajce.provider.rainbow.BCRainbowPublicKey

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.security.Key, java.security.PublicKey

public class BCRainbowPublicKey
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.security.PublicKey

This class implements CipherParameters and PublicKey.

The public key in Rainbow consists of n - v1 polynomial components of the private key's F and the field structure of the finite field k.

The quadratic (or mixed) coefficients of the polynomials from the public key are stored in the 2-dimensional array in lexicographical order, requiring n * (n + 1) / 2 entries for each polynomial. The singular terms are stored in a 2-dimensional array requiring n entries per polynomial, the scalar term of each polynomial is stored in a 1-dimensional array.

More detailed information on the public key is to be found in the paper of Jintai Ding, Dieter Schmidt: Rainbow, a New Multivariable Polynomial Signature Scheme. ACNS 2005: 164-175 (http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/11496137_12)
