We show that every language in NP has a *statistical* zero-knowledge
argument system under the (minimal) complexity assumption that
one-way functions exist. In such protocols, even a computationally
unbounded verifier cannot learn anything other than the fact that the
assertion being proven is true, whereas a polynomial-time prover
cannot convince ...

We give a complexity-theoretic characterization of the class of problems in NP having zero-knowledge argument systems that is symmetric in its treatment of the zero knowledge and the soundness conditions. From this, we deduce that the class of problems in NP intersect coNP having zero-knowledge arguments is closed under complement. ... more >>>
