Chenzhi Zhu

I am a forth-year Ph.D. student in the cryptography group in the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering at the University of Washington. I am advised by Stefano Tessaro.

Prior to this, I received my bachelor’s degree from Yao Class at Tsinghua University. I did an internship at NTT CIS lab during the summer of 2023, working under the supervision of Ilan Komargodski. I was visiting CMU during 2019, working under the supervision of Vipul Goyal on cryptography.

I have a broad interest in cryptography and related fields of theoretical computer science. I love solving concrete, discrete problems. My current focus is on various signature schemes, such as blind signatures and threshold signatures.
