Research Fellow
Roberto Parisella is a Research Fellow at the Department of Cryptography, Simula Research Laboratory (UiB), focusing on advanced cryptographic protocols and zero-knowledge proofs. His work bridges theoretical foundations with practical implementations in secure computation. Primary institution: University of Bergen Research unit: Simula Research Laboratory Research Interests: Pairing-based cryptography Zero-Knowledge protocols (zk-SNARKs, NIZKs) Non-interactive proof systems Security models and extraction techniques Algebraic structures in cryptography Falsifiable assumptions in cryptographic design Publication Trends: His recent work focuses on optimizing zero-knowledge proof sizes and security reductions, with emphasis on algebraic group models and determinantal accumulators. Key contributions include advancements in non-interactive witness indistinguishability and adaptive security mechanisms for Sigma protocols. Labs & Institutions: Currently affiliated with Simula Research Laboratory, a leading Norwegian research institute in applied mathematics and cryptography, under the University of Bergen’s academic umbrella.
