Privacy Amplification with Asymptotically Optimal Entropy Loss
We study the problem of "privacy amplification": key agreement between two parties who both know a weak secret w, such as a password. (Such a setting is ubiquitous on th...

Asymptotically Optimal Two-Round Perfectly Secure Message Transmission
Abstract. The problem of perfectly secure message transmission concerns two synchronized non-faulty processors sender (S) and receiver (R) that are connected by a synchronous netwo...

Key Agreement from Close Secrets over Unsecured Channels
We consider information-theoretic key agreement between two parties sharing somewhat different versions of a secret w that has relatively little entropy. Such key agreement, also ...

Optimal Reductions Between Oblivious Transfers Using Interactive Hashing
Abstract. We present an asymptotically optimal reduction of one-outof-two String Oblivious Transfer to one-out-of-two Bit Oblivious Transfer using Interactive Hashing in conjunctio...

Variational Minimax Estimation of Discrete Distributions under KL Loss
We develop a family of upper and lower bounds on the worst-case expected KL loss for estimating a discrete distribution on a finite number m of points, given N i.i.d. samples. Our...
