We address one of the foundational problems in cryptography: the bias of coin-flipping protocols. Coin-flipping protocols allow mutually distrustful parties to generate a common u...
An electronic cash system allows users to withdraw coins, represented as bit strings, from a bank or broker, and spend those coins anonymously at participating merchants, so that ...

We investigate the randomized and quantum communication complexity of the HAMMING DISTANCE problem, which is to determine if the Hamming distance between two n-bit strings is no l...
A large number of vision applications rely on matching keypoints across images. The last decade featured an arms-race towards faster and more robust keypoints and association algo...

We prove lower bounds for the direct sum problem for two-party bounded error randomised multipleround communication protocols. Our proofs use the notion of information cost of a p...
