Transformation from e-voting to e-cheque

Although e-voting scheme and e-cheque scheme are two different applications, they have similarities in the scheme definitions and security properties. This inspires us to establish a relationship between the two schemes by formalising a generic transformation from e-voting to e-cheque scheme. Firstly, we define the scheme definitions and security models for both e-voting scheme and e-cheque scheme. Subsequently, we demonstrate a generic transformation framework from e-voting to e-cheque with asymptotic complexity of O ( n ) and design a formal proof to show that a secure e-voting scheme can be transformed into a secure e-cheque scheme. As a proof of concept, we apply our newly proposed transformation technique to the e-voting scheme proposed by Li et al. and obtain a concrete e-cheque scheme.
