Chapter 2.5, Problem 22MS
Signing your name. Suppose you get a message that claims to be coming from your friend Joseph Shlock. It says that you should invest all your savings in pork kidneys. How do you know if the message really came from your friend Shlock and not your arch-enemy Irving Satan? Ideally, it would be great if each message were “signed” by the sender in such a manner that no one could “forge” the signature. Using the RSA scheme (in reverse), devise a method for verifying a message’s origin. (Hint: Could the encoding procedure be used to reveal the signature?)

One morning Dave an email message to Alvin that said the following: “You are one of my dearest friends. If you care about me, send a copy of this letter to two of your dearest friends tomorrow. If you do not break this chain, you will live long and prosper.” Alvin followed the directions: the next day he sent a copy of the message to two of his dearest friends. The following day, each of the recipients did the same. Count the day Dave sent the original message as the first day, and assume the chain is unbroken. A. How many copies of the message will be sent on the sixth day? B. Find the n-rule that will show how many copies of the message will sent on the n-th day.
