Abstract(in English) The concept of group signature allows a group member to sign messages anonymously on behalf of the group. A group signature has a feature of Tracing, that is, the identity of a signer can be revealed by a designated entity in case of dispute. A number of group signature schemes have been proposed to-date and most of these used a membership certificate. In the certificate-based group signature scheme, it is necessary to revoke the revoked member's certificate. Ateniese and Tsudik [3] proposed Certificate Revocation List(CRL)-based revocation scheme, that is, in order to revoke a member from the group, a group manager adds commitment of revoked member's certificate to a CRL, and a signer attaches a commitment of his/her membership certificate. In the verification, a verifier checks whether or not the CRL includes the commitment of signer's membership certificate. In the previous group signature scheme [12], a group manager knows each member's membership certificate and he can compute a commitment of a member's certificate. Therefore, he can reveal the signer's identity even if he does not run the Tracing protocol and thus the CRL-based revocation scheme does not realize the feature of anonymity to the group manager. In this paper, we propose a privacy enhanced group signature scheme which realizes the feature of anonymity to the group manager.
