Abstract
It is aimed to implement a hierarchical predicate encryption (HPE) scheme. A cryptographic process is performed using dual vector spaces (dual distortion vector spaces (DDVS)) of a space V and a space V* paired through a pairing operation. An encryption device generates as a cipher vector a vector in the space V, the vector having transmission information embedded therein. A decryption device, using a predetermined vector in the space V* as a key vector, performs the pairing operation on the cipher vector generated by the encryption device and the key vector, to decrypt the cipher vector and to extract information concerning the transmission information.
