Privacy-Preserving Graph Algorithms in the Semi-honest Model
Abstract. We consider scenarios in which two parties, each in possession of a graph, wish to compute some algorithm on their joint graph in a privacy-preserving manner, that is, wi...

The Tensor Product of Two Codes Is Not Necessarily Robustly Testable
There has been signiï¬cant interest lately in the task of constructing codes that are testable with a small number of random probes. Ben-Sasson and Sudan show that the repeated te...

Reconstructive Dispersers and Hitting Set Generators
Abstract. We give a generic construction of an optimal hitting set generator (HSG) from any good “reconstructive†disperser. Past constructions of optimal HSGs have been based ...
