Query: A Novel Approach for Verifiable Secret Sharing by using a One Way Hash
  Function   Threshold secret sharing schemes do not prevent any malicious behavior of the
dealer or shareholders and so we need verifiable secret sharing, to detect and
identify the cheaters, to achieve fair reconstruction of a secret. The problem
of verifiable secret sharing is to verify the shares distributed by the dealer.
A novel approach for verifiable secret sharing is presented in this paper where
both the dealer and shareholders are not assumed to be honest. In this paper,
we extend the term verifiable secret sharing to verify the shares, distributed
by a dealer as well as shares submitted by shareholders for secret
reconstruction, and to verify the reconstructed secret. Our proposed scheme
uses a one way hash function and probabilistic homomorphic encryption function
to provide verifiability and fair reconstruction of a secret.
