Precise zero-knowledge, introduced by Micali and Pass [STOC’06], captures the idea that a view of any verifier can be
indifferently
reconstructed. Though there are some constructions of precise zero-knowledge, constant-round constructions are unknown to exist. This paper is towards constant-round constructions of precise zero-knowledge. The results of this paper are as follows.
We propose a relaxation of precise zero-knowledge that captures the idea that with a probability
arbitrarily polynomially
close to 1 a view of any verifier can be
indifferently
reconstructed, i.e., there exists a simulator (without having
q
(
n
),
p
(
n
,
t
) as input) such that for
any
polynomial
q
(
n
), there is a polynomial
p
(
n
,
t
) satisfying with probability at least
$1-\frac{1}{q(n)}$
, the view of any verifier in every interaction can be reconstructed in
p
(
n
,
T
) time by the simulator whenever the verifier’s running-time on this view is
T
. Then we show the impossibility of constructing constant-round protocols satisfying our relaxed definition with all the known techniques.
We present a constant-round precise zero-knowledge argument for any language in
NP
with respect to our definition, assuming the existence of collision-resistant hash function families (against all
n
O
(loglog
n
)
-size circuits).
