We consider the problem of extracting randomness from sources that are efficiently samplable, in the sense that each output bit of the sampler only depends on some small number d ...

Suppose Alice and Bob receive strings of unbiased independent but noisy bits from some random source. They wish to use their respective strings to extract a common sequence of ran...

Complexity theory typically studies the complexity of computing a function h(x) : {0, 1}m {0, 1}n of a given input x. A few works have suggested to study the complexity of genera...

We study the role of connectivity of communication networks in private computations under information theoretic settings. It will be shown that some functions can be computed by pr...

In order to generate a universal probability distribution to extrapolate a binary string x of length i, we feed random bits into a universal device, M. When we find an input strin...

We provide a framework for online conflict-free coloring (CF-coloring) of any hypergraph. We use this framework to obtain an efficient randomized online algorithm for CF-coloring ...

In this paper we prove a perhaps unexpected relationship between the complexity class of the boolean functions that have linear size circuits, and n-party private protocols. Speci...
