I'm not sure what you're saying beyond that point. I am talking about asymmetric key cryptography which is also used to sign apps. All you need is you private (secret) key. It's in your keystore file (which simply can holds more private keys than one. If you (or anyone) can have your private key and know the passphrase s/he will be able to sign on behalf of you and nobody will catch the difference. So you only need the key or keystore copied/moved to other machine. PS: that's why it's important to keep private secure and have strong passphrase. Once both leak you're in trouble.

[android-developers] Changing from one dev machine to another, keystore question
To this point, I've been doing development on multiple machines but always packaging for deployment on the same machine. If I want to package for deployment on another machine, will simply copying the keystore file to the new machine do the trick?

Sure... the key is the same, no matter what machine it's on. I've even emailed it to myself and installed it on different machines.
