Description:
Explore the complexity of Scrypt and Proofs of Space in the Parallel Random Oracle Model in this 26-minute Eurocrypt 2016 conference talk. Delve into password hashing, sequential memory hardness, and the design of memory-hard functions. Examine the ROMix algorithm, cumulative memory complexity, and the concept of entangled adversaries. Investigate the connection between memory-hard functions and pebbling games, including key lemmas and potential functions. Gain insights into randomized pebbling games and their implications for cryptographic security.
