Cryptography and Security 2010-11-17 v1

Abstract

Commutative encryption is a useful but rather strict notion in cryptography. In this paper, we deny a loose variation of commutative encryption-commutative-like encryption and give an example: the generalization of ElGamal scheme. The application of the new variation is also discussed.
