In this paper we study the cryptographic complexity of non-trivial witness-indistinguishable ($WI$) arguments of knowledge. We establish that:
- Assuming that $NP\not\subseteq P/poly,$ the existence of a constant-round computational $WI$ argument of knowledge for $NP$ implies that (infinitely-often) auxiliary-input one-way functions exist.
- Assuming that $NP\not\subseteq P^{Sam}/poly,$ there is no ... more >>>
