Abstract
We describe a new kind of commitment scheme in which two parties commit to values in a commitment stage, at the end of which we are assured that the values they have committed to cannot be correlated to one another. We call this new primitive mutually independent commitments. We present three mutually independent commitment schemes which handle single bit commitments, and which are computationally hiding and perfecting binding.
