@ashishlakra01 you could do something like this:
from hashlib import sha256
group = ... # some PairingGroup
g2 = ... # element of G2
digest = sha256(group.serialize(g2)).digest()
@ashishlakra01 you could do something like this:
from hashlib import sha256 group = ... # some PairingGroup g2 = ... # element of G2 digest = sha256(group.serialize(g2)).digest()
Thank you so much @lrusso96 I will try this out.
I want to have a cryptographic hash function with the mapping as H: G2 → {0, 1}n for some n . But in charm-crypto we can only hash an element type/string to a specific field only.
I am implementing an algorithm for certificateless public encryption with keyword search and in the algorithm I need this hash function.
Can someone please help me how to facilitate this hash function H functionality in charm?
