Title:
Multi-Party Computation of Polynomials and Branching Programs without Simultaneous Interaction
Authors: S. Dov Gordon, Tal Malkin, Mike Rosulek, Hoeteck Wee
Abstract:Halevi, Lindell, and Pinkas (CRYPTO 2011) recently proposed a model for secure computation that captures communication patterns that arise in many practical settings, such as secure computation on the web. In their model, each party interacts only once, with a single centralized server. Parties do not interact with each other; in fact, the parties need not even be online simultaneously. In this work we present a suite of new, simple and efficient protocols for secure computation in this “one-pass” model. We give protocols that obtain optimal privacy for the following general tasks: – Evaluating any multivariate polynomial F(x_1, \ldots ,x_n) (modulo a large RSA modulus N), where the parties each hold an input x_i. – Evaluating any read once branching program over the parties’ inputs. As a special case, these function classes include all previous functions for which an optimally private, one-pass computation was known, as well as many new functions, including variance and other statistical functions, string matching, second-price auctions, classification algorithms and some classes of finite automata and decision trees.
