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...
We present a lower bound on the round complexity of a natural class of black-box constructions of statistically hiding commitments from one-way permutations. This implies a Ω( n ...
Interactive hashing, introduced by Naor, Ostrovsky, Venkatesan and Yung (CRYPTO ’92), plays an important role in many cryptographic protocols. In particular, it is a major compo...
