We consider the round complexity of a basic cryptographic task: verifiable secret sharing (VSS). This well-studied primitive provides a good "test case" for our understan...
Competitive analysis is the established tool for measuring the output quality of algorithms that work in an online environment. Recently, the model of advice complexity has been in...
The aggregation of conflicting preferences is a central problem in multiagent systems. The key difficulty is that the agents may report their preferences insincerely. Mechanism de...
We present the first general protocol for secure multiparty computation in which the total amount of work required by n players to compute a function f grows only polylogarithmical...
For half a century since computers came into existence, the goal of finding elegant and efficient algorithms to solve "simple" (welldefined and well-structured) problems ...
