[3] [4] The verifiable unpredictable function thus proposed, which is provably secure if a variant of the RSA problem is hard, is defined as follows: The public key PK is (,,,), where m is the product of two random primes, r is a number randomly selected from , coins is a randomly selected set of bits, and Q a function selected randomly from ...
In the asymptotic setting, a family of deterministic polynomial time computable functions : {,} {,} for some polynomial p, is a pseudorandom number generator (PRNG, or PRG in some references), if it stretches the length of its input (() > for any k), and if its output is computationally indistinguishable from true randomness, i.e. for any probabilistic polynomial time algorithm A, which ...
It can be shown that if is a pseudo-random number generator for the uniform distribution on (,) and if is the CDF of some given probability distribution , then is a pseudo-random number generator for , where : (,) is the percentile of , i.e. ():= {: ()}. Intuitively, an arbitrary distribution can be simulated from a simulation of the standard ...
A random variable is a measurable function: from a sample space as a set of possible outcomes to a measurable space.The technical axiomatic definition requires the sample space to belong to a probability triple (,,) (see the measure-theoretic definition).
This module is subject to page protection.It is a highly visible module in use by a very large number of pages, or is substituted very frequently. Because vandalism or mistakes would affect many pages, and even trivial editing might cause substantial load on the servers, it is protected from editing.
Random number generation is a process by which, often by means of a random number generator (RNG), a sequence of numbers or symbols is generated that cannot be reasonably predicted better than by random chance. This means that the particular outcome sequence will contain some patterns detectable in hindsight but impossible to foresee.

Formally, let S and T be finite sets and let F = {f: S → T} be a class of functions. A distribution D over S is ε- pseudorandom against F if for every f in F , the statistical distance between the distributions f ( X ) {\displaystyle f(X)} and f ( Y ) {\displaystyle f(Y)} , where X {\displaystyle X} is sampled from D and Y {\displaystyle Y ...
