摘要:Optimistic fair exchange (OFE) is a type of cryptographic protocols aimed at solving the fair exchange problem over open networks with the help of a third party to settle disputes between exchanging parties. It is well known that a third party is necessary in therealisationof a fair exchange protocol. However, a fully trusted third party may not be available over open networks. In response to this issue, recent OFE constructions also consider the security when the third party, often known as the arbitrator, is dishonest in a certain sense.In this talk, we present our recent findings on OFE when we consider the case when the arbitrator could collude with one of the participating parties.
