A Novel Position-Based Commitment Protocol for Secure Multi-Party Verification with Hydraulic-Inspired Mathematical Obfuscation

This work presents a cryptographic protocol for secure multi-party verification that achieves com putational privacy while maintaining exceptional computational efficiency. The proposed Position Based Commitment Protocol (PBCP) introduces a position-dependent nonce mechanism combined with cyclic verification architecture, enabling se cure computation over private inputs without re vealing individual parameters. Unlike existing commitment schemes that require complex cryp tographic assumptions, computationally expensive zero-knowledge proofs, or extensive public key in frastructure, Fundamental innovation lies in adapt ing physical laws of fluid dynamics to create nat ural mathematical relationships where each verifi cation equation contains multiple unknowns, mak ing parameter extraction computationally infeasible while preserving verification integrity. The proto col preliminary analysis suggests O(n) communica tion complexity with O(n2) verification complexity, providing substantial improvements over traditional Byzantine Agreement protocols that require O(n3) message exchanges. Comprehensive security analysis reveals robust resistance against statistical attacks with complexity O(R3) where R represents the pa rameter range, complete immunity to timing attacks through blind submission mechanisms, and resilience against collusion attacks involving up to n/2 − 1 ad versarial parties. The protocol’s unique cyclic neigh bor verification creates an interdependent validation network that prevents individual parameter extrac tion while maintaining system-wide integrity through mathematical interdependence rather than crypto graphic assumptions.
