I'm worried about the classic Zero Knowledge proof a Hamiltonian
circuit. (See the example in
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-knowledge_proof). It looks like the
article is wrong when it says "Because of the nature of the isomorphic
graph and Hamiltonian cycle problems, (namely, that they are NP), Victor
gains no information about the Hamiltonian cycle in G from the
information revealed in each round." If graph isomorphism is in RP (as
well as NP), I would hardly conclude that V is getting no knowledge
about the circuit in G by being shown the circuit in H.
I agree. There is no way I would use graph isomorphism as a
hard-problem meant to secure important data. Somebody, please, show me
two graphs which are hard to compare!
