Abstract(in English) In Shamir's (k, n)-threshold scheme, given a secret S a dealer generates n shares by using a random polynomial of degree k-1 over a finite field Fq. While S is recovered from arbitrary collection of more than or equal to k shares, no information about S is revealed from any collection of less than k shares. In Shamir's scheme the number of shares is at most q-1. Recently, Komargodski et al give a construction of a secret sharing scheme called the evolving k-THR in which for a given secret S a dealer can generate countably infinite shares with the property similar to Shamir's (k,n)-threshold scheme. In this paper, we propose new simple constructions of the evolving 3-THR and 4-THR and evaluate the sizes of the shares. In particular, we prove that the size of the share of the t-th participant can be reduced to O((log log t)^2) in the evolving 3-THR.
