Hash To Curve

  import "github.com/bytemare/hash2curve"

Package hash2curve provides hash-to-curve compatible hashing over arbitrary input. It implements the expanders and hashing to a field as specified in hash-to-curve.

What is hash2curve?

Hashing to curve allows representing arbitrary byte sequences as points on a curve (or elements in a group), therefore benefiting from interesting mathematical properties very useful in cryptographic protocols, like CPace, VOPRF, and OPAQUE.

Functions

func ExpandXMD

func ExpandXMD(id crypto.Hash, input, dst []byte, length int) []byte

ExpandXMD expands the input and dst using the given fixed length hash function.

func ExpandXOF

func ExpandXOF(id hash.Extendable, input, dst []byte, length int) []byte

ExpandXOF expands the input and dst using the given extendable output hash function.

func HashToFieldXMD

func HashToFieldXMD(id crypto.Hash, input, dst []byte, count, ext, securityLength int, modulo *big.Int) []*big.Int

HashToFieldXMD hashes the input with the domain separation tag (dst) to an integer under modulo, using an merkle-damgard based expander (e.g. SHA256).

func HashToFieldXOF

func HashToFieldXOF(id hash.Extendable, input, dst []byte, count, ext, securityLength int, modulo *big.Int) []*big.Int

HashToFieldXOF hashes the input with the domain separation tag (dst) to an integer under modulo, using an extensible output function (e.g. SHAKE).
