Abstract(in English) The paper presents a new protocol for counting 1-bit secrets without revealing if the bit is 1 or 0 in publicly verifiable way.Other than the conventional multi-party protocols that involve enormous number of rounds and huge bandwidth consumtion, the proposed protocol, based on the Mix and Match approach [2]in which computations are dealt with ciphertexts, requires a non-interactive constant number of round and simple but verifiable computation for both of sender and counter.The expected application of proposed protocol is an (one-bit) secret voting in which voters cast a ballot encrypted for distributed public key and an oblivious party makes a tally of how many votes are polled.
