Quantum Protocols for Rabin Oblivious Transfer

Authors: Erika Andersson, Akshay Bansal, James T. Peat, Jamie Sikora, and Jiawei Wu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 360, 45th IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2025)


Abstract
Rabin oblivious transfer is the cryptographic task where Alice wishes to receive a bit from Bob but it may get lost with probability 1/2. In this work, we provide protocol designs which yield quantum protocols with improved security. Moreover, we provide a constant lower bound on any quantum protocol for Rabin oblivious transfer. To quantify the security of this task with asymmetric cheating definitions, we introduce the notion of cheating advantage which may be of independent interest in the study of other asymmetric cryptographic primitives.

A Natural Language Formalization of Perfectoid Rings in ℕaproche

Authors: Peter Koepke

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)


Abstract
This paper describes an experiment to formalize sophisticated mathematics in the ℕaproche proof assistant which uses natural language input and a first-order internal logic. We view this as a contribution to the ongoing discussion whether formal systems for research mathematics require complex, computer-orientated type systems or whether approaches closer to traditional mathematical practices are possible. The formalization also explores the limits of the current ℕaproche system and avenues for further development.

New Results in Share Conversion, with Applications to Evolving Access Structures

Authors: Tamar Ben David, Varun Narayanan, Olga Nissenbaum, and Anat Paskin-Cherniavsky

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 343, 6th Conference on Information-Theoretic Cryptography (ITC 2025)


Abstract
We say there is a share conversion from a secret-sharing scheme Π to another scheme Π' implementing the same access structure if each party can locally apply a deterministic function to their share to transform any valid secret-sharing under Π to a valid (but not necessarily random) secret-sharing under Π' of the same secret. If such a conversion exists, we say that Π ≥ Π'. This notion was introduced by Cramer et al. (TCC'05), where they particularly proved that for any access structure, any linear secret-sharing scheme over a given field 𝔽, has a conversion from a CNF scheme, and is convertible to a DNF scheme. In this work, we initiate a systematic study of convertability between secret-sharing schemes, and present a number of results with implications to the understanding of the convertibility landscape. - In the context of linear schemes, we present two key theorems providing necessary conditions for convertibility, proved using linear-algebraic tools. It has several implications, such as the fact that Shamir secret-sharing scheme can be neither maximal or minimal. Another implication of it is that a scheme may be minimal if its share complexity is at least as high as that of DNF. - Our second key result is a necessary condition for convertibility to CNF from a broad class of (not necessarily linear) schemes. This result is proved via information-theoretic techniques and implies non-maximality for schemes with share complexity smaller than that of CNF. We also provide a condition which is both necessary and sufficient for the existence of a share conversion to some linear scheme. The condition is stated as a system of linear equations, such that a conversion exists if and only if a solution to the linear system exists. We note that the impossibility results for linear schemes may be viewed as identifying a subset of contradicting equations in the system. Another contribution of our paper, is in defining and studying share conversion for evolving secret-sharing schemes. In such a schemes, recently introduced by Komargodski et al. {(IEEE ToIT'18)}, the number of parties is not bounded apriori, and every party receives a share as it arrives, which never changes in the sequel. Our impossibility results have implications to the evolving setting as well. Interestingly, unlike in the standard setting, there is no maximum or minimum in a broad class of evolving schemes, even without any restriction on the share size. Finally, we show that, generally, there is no conversion between additive schemes over different fields, even from CNF to DNF! However by relaxing from perfect to statistical security, it may be possible to convert, and exemplify this for (n,n)-threshold access structures.

Towards Ordinal Data Science

Authors: Gerd Stumme, Dominik Dürrschnabel, and Tom Hanika

Published in: TGDK, Volume 1, Issue 1 (2023): Special Issue on Trends in Graph Data and Knowledge. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 1, Issue 1


Abstract
Order is one of the main instruments to measure the relationship between objects in (empirical) data. However, compared to methods that use numerical properties of objects, the amount of ordinal methods developed is rather small. One reason for this is the limited availability of computational resources in the last century that would have been required for ordinal computations. Another reason - particularly important for this line of research - is that order-based methods are often seen as too mathematically rigorous for applying them to real-world data. In this paper, we will therefore discuss different means for measuring and ‘calculating’ with ordinal structures - a specific class of directed graphs - and show how to infer knowledge from them. Our aim is to establish Ordinal Data Science as a fundamentally new research agenda. Besides cross-fertilization with other cornerstone machine learning and knowledge representation methods, a broad range of disciplines will benefit from this endeavor, including, psychology, sociology, economics, web science, knowledge engineering, scientometrics.

Use Your Brain! Arithmetic 3PC for Any Modulus with Active Security

Authors: Hendrik Eerikson, Marcel Keller, Claudio Orlandi, Pille Pullonen, Joonas Puura, and Mark Simkin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 163, 1st Conference on Information-Theoretic Cryptography (ITC 2020)


Abstract
Secure multiparty computation (MPC) allows a set of mutually distrustful parties to compute a public function on their private inputs without revealing anything beyond the output of the computation. This paper focuses on the specific case of actively secure three-party computation with an honest majority. In particular, we are interested in solutions which allow to evaluate arithmetic circuits over real-world CPU word sizes, like 32- and 64-bit words. Our starting point is the novel compiler of Damgård et al. from CRYPTO 2018. First, we present an improved version of it which reduces the online communication complexity by a factor of 2. Next, we replace their preprocessing protocol (with arithmetic modulo a large prime) with a more efficient preprocessing which only performs arithmetic modulo powers of two. Finally, we present a novel "postprocessing" check which replaces the preprocessing phase. These protocols offer different efficiency tradeoffs and can therefore outperform each other in different deployment settings. We demonstrate this with benchmarks in a LAN and different WAN settings. Concretely, we achieve a throughput of 1 million 64-bit multiplications per second with parties located in different continents and 3 million in one location.
