jim miller asks for bibliographic references on non-repudiation.
the classic references, and the only books i know of, are:
dorothy denning's "cryptography and data security." addison-wesley, '83
meyer & matyas, "cryptography: a new dimension in computer
data security," wiley, '82
m&m devote more pages to signatures than does denning, but i find denning's
writing is usually more concise and incisive. m&m have a section on the
private-key notary, without private-key certificates. this is the sort of
approach that ted referred to earlier.
there's been a lot of research in signatures in the past 10 years, though.
i'm sorry, but i can't give you a concise biblio. having had a literature
search done on the topic "digital signatures" a while ago, i can tell you
that the literature is vast; thousands of articles, as i recall.
for a start, see the recent proceedings of the following conferences:
ieee symposium on security and privacy
acm symposium on operating systems principles
"crypto" and "eurocrypt" conferences (published by springer
as "advances in cryptology - crypto '89," for example,
in its "lecture notes in c.s. series"
in the late '70's - early '80's, many influential papers appeared in
the communications of the acm, too.
