Capacity of byzantine agreement with finite link capacity
—We consider the problem of maximizing the throughput of Byzantine agreement, when communication links have finite capacity. Byzantine agreement is a classical problem in distri...

Load Balanced Scalable Byzantine Agreement through Quorum Building, with Full Information
We address the problem of designing distributed algorithms for large scale networks that are robust to Byzantine faults. We consider a message passing, full information model: the ...

Lower Bounds on Implementing Robust and Resilient Mediators
We provide new and tight lower bounds on the ability of players to implement equilibria using cheap talk, that is, just allowing communication among the players. One of our main r...

On Expected Constant-Round Protocols for Byzantine Agreement
In a seminal paper, Feldman and Micali (STOC '88) show an n-party Byzantine agreement protocol tolerating t < n/3 malicious parties that runs in expected constant rounds. H...

Brief announcement: byzantine agreement with homonyms
In this work, we address Byzantine agreement in a message passing system with homonyms, i.e. a system with a number l of authenticated identities that is independent of the total ...
