The design of a secure hash function using Dickson polynomial

Almost all hash functions suggested up till now provide security by using complicated operations on fixed size blocks, but still the security isn't guaranteed mathematically. The difficulty of making a secure hash function lies in the collision freeness, and this can be obtained from permutation polynomials. If a permutation polynomial has the property of one-wayness, it is suitable for a hash function. We have chosen Dickson polynomial for our hash algorithm, which is a kind of permutation polynomials. When certain conditions are satisfied, a Dickson polynomial has the property of one-wayness, which makes the resulting hash code mathematically secure. In this paper, a message digest algorithm will be designed using Dickson polynomial.
