Resumo

The increasing adoption of extensible and decentralized token systems demands efficient and flexible signature schemes. Aggregate signatures enable the combination of multiple signatures on various messages into a single aggregate. Existing techniques often lack support for features such as delegation and extension, or introduce significant complexity without clear advantages over non-aggregated schemes. This paper presents SchoCo, a Schnorr-based half-aggregate scheme designed for extensible tokens. Its security is proven in the random oracle model through a reduction to the existential unforgeability under adaptive chosen-message attacks of the Schnorr signature scheme. The proposed scheme is inspired by the identity-based signature technique developed by Galindo and Garcia. It achieves signature sizes comparable to existing schemes while cutting verification costs by up to 50%. Furthermore, we show that SchoCo is well-suited for integrating token-based authorization frameworks, using the Biscuit token as a concrete instantiation, with practical gains in both token size and verification efficiency.
