Hash function based on arithmetic coding and public-key cryptography

We propose a hash function based on arithmetic coding and public-key cryptography. The resistance of the hash function to second preimage attack, collision and differential cryptanalysis is based on the properties of arithmetic coding as a non-linear dynamical system. The resistance of the hash function to first preimage attack is based on the public-key cryptography. The new hash function uses the strength of HMAC with the difference that it didn't need a secret key for calculating the hash (in this step, it uses one, two or three public -keys) and in the classical attack, an adversary need to break the public key algorithm or to have all the secret keys to perform his attack.

Collision-resistant hash function based on composition of functions

cryptographic hash function is a deterministic procedure that compresses an arbitrary block of numerical data and returns a fixed-size bit string. There exist many hash functions: MD5, HAVAL, SHA, ... It was reported that these hash functions are not longer secure. Our work is focused in the construction of a new hash function based on composition of functions. The construction used the NP-completeness of Three-dimensional contingency tables and the relaxation of the constraint that a hash function should also be a compression function.
