Summary: 
Extensive studies have been made of the public key cryptosystems based on multivariate polynomials over F2. However most of the proposed public key cryptosystems based on multivariate polynomials, are proved not secure. In this paper, we propose several types of new constructions of public key cryptosystems based on randomly generated singular simultaneous equations. One of the features of the proposed cryptosystems is that the sets of random singular simultaneous equations significantly enlarges the size of the transformation.
