Compression Function Design Principles Supporting Variable Output Lengths from a Single Small Function
Abstract
In this paper, we introduce new compression function design principles supporting variable output lengths (multiples of size $n$). They are based on a function or block cipher with an $n$-bit output size. In the case of the compression function with a $(t+1)n$-bit output size, in the random oracle and ideal cipher models, their maximum advantages from the perspective of collision resistance are $O(\frac{t^2q}{2^{tn}}+\frac{q^2}{2^{(t+1)n}})$. In the case of $t=1$, the advantage is near-optimal. In the case of $t>1$, the advantage is optimal.
