A new certificateless aggregate signature scheme

Aggregate signatures are useful in special areas where the signatures on many different messages generated by many different users need to be compressed. In this paper, we study aggregate signatures in certificateless public key settings. We first present the notion and security model of certificateless aggregate signature schemes. Then we give an efficient certificateless aggregate signature scheme. Our scheme is existentially unforgeable under adaptive chosen-message attacks assuming the computational Diffie–Hellman problem is hard.
