Towards Characterizing Secure Samplability

Abstract

This work deals with the fundamental problem of characterizing which multiparty distributions can be securely sampled with information-theoretic security against passive corruption, when there is no setup or honest-majority. We focus on the case of 4-party distributions with boolean outputs for each party. We show that such a distribution is securely samplable if and only if every 2-party distribution derived from it by partitioning the parties into two sets is securely samplable. This extends a similar characterization previously known for 3-party distributions.
