Group undeniable signatures are like ordinary group signatures except that verifying signatures needs the help of the group
manager. In this paper, we propose a convertible group undeniable signature scheme in which the group manager can turn all
or selective signatures, which are originally group undeniable signatures, into ordinary group signatures without compromising
security of the secret key needed to generate signatures. The proposed scheme also allows the group manager to delegate the
ability to confirm and deny to a limited set of parties without providing them the capability of generating signatures. For
business applications, convertible group undeniable signatures can be widely used to validate price lists, press release or
digital contracts when the signatures are commercially sensitive or valuable to a competitor. Our scheme is unforgeable, signature-simulatable
and coalition-resistant. The confirmation and denial protocols are also zero-knowledge. Furthermore, the time, space and communication
complexity are independent of the group size.
