Threshold Signature Equation:
z = Σ(i=0 to n-1) (y_i + c · s_{1,i}) (mod q)
||z||_∞ < γ_1 − β
Where:
• z: aggregated response vector
• y_i: ephemeral masking vector (party i)
• c: challenge polynomial (coefficients in {-1, 0, 1}, Hamming weight τ = 60)
• s_{1,i}: secret-key share of party i
• q: ring modulus (8380417)
• ||·||_∞: infinity norm (max absolute coefficient)
• γ_1: rejection-sampling bound (2^19 = 524288)
• β: bound on ||c · s_1||_∞ (τ × η × n = 60 × 2 × 3 = 360)
Security Check:
||z||_∞ < γ_1 − β ensures secret shares are statistically hidden in noise
