Abstract: A method is disclosed whereby two parties can establish a cryptographic key for secure communications without any prior distribution of secret keys or other secret data, and without revealing said key to any third party who may have access to all of the transmissions between them. The two parties agree upon a matrix M, and two commutative families of square matrices F and G. The sender chooses a matrix S from F and a matrix T from G. The receiver independently chooses a matrix R from F and a matrix Q from G. The sender transmits the matrix SMT to the receiver and the receiver transmits the matrix RMQ to the sender. The sender computes the matrix SRMQT from the received matrix RMQ, and the receiver computes the matrix RSMTQ from the received matrix SMT. Since the matrices S and R commute, and the matrices T and Q commute, SRMQT=RSMTQ. The value of the matrix SRMTQ is then used to produce the desired cryptographic key.
