Lattice-based identity-based resplittable threshold public key encryption scheme

Threshold public key encryption is a cryptographic primitive where a secret key of an organization is distributed among special members called decryption servers (insiders) and a certain threshold number of insiders must cooperate to decrypt any ciphertext. Threshold public key encryption with an additional randomized algorithm Tsplit is called resplittable threshold public key encryption (RTPKE). Cryptographic primitive RTPKE was introduced by Hanaoka et al. [Generic construction of chosen ciphertext secure proxy re-encryption, in CT-RSA, San Francisco, CA, USA, LNCS, O. Dunkelman, ed., Springer-Verlag, Heidelberg, 2012, pp. 349–364] in a generic construction of chosen ciphertext attack secure proxy re-encryption scheme. In MIST 2013 conference Singh et al. [Lattice based efficient threshold public key encryption scheme, J. Wirel. Mob. Netw. Ubiquitous Comput. Dependable Appl. (JoWUA) 4(4) (2013), pp. 93–107] presented lattice-based RTPKE scheme based on Regev's LWE [On lattices, learning with errors, random linear codes, and cryptography, in STOC, Baltimore, MD, USA, H.N. Gabow and R. Fagin, eds., ACM, University of Wales, Cardiff, 2005, pp. 84–93] assumption. In this paper, we propose lattice-based RTPKE scheme in the identity-based setting.
