Title:
An Efficient Solution to The Millionaires’ Problem Based on Homomorphic Encryption

Authors: Hsiao-Ying Lin, Wen-Guey Tzeng

Abstract:

We proposed a two-round protocol for solving the
Millionaires’ Problem in the setting of semi-honest
parties.
Our protocol uses either multiplicative or additive
homomorphic encryptions.
Previously proposed protocols used additive or XOR
homomorphic encryption schemes only.
The computation and communication costs of our protocol
are in the same asymptotic order as those of
the other efficient protocols.
Nevertheless, since multiplicative homomorphic encryption
scheme is more efficient than an additive one practically,
our construction saves computation time and communication
bandwidth in practicality.
