Title:
Round-Efficient Black-Box Construction of Composable Multi-Party Computation

Authors: Susumu Kiyoshima

Abstract:

We present a round-efficient black-box construction of a general multi-party computation (MPC) protocol that satisfies composability in the plain model. The security of our protocol is proven in the angel-based UC framework [Prabhakaran and Sahai, STOC’04] under the minimal assumption of the existence of semi-honest oblivious transfer protocols. The round complexity of our protocol is \max(\tilde{O}(\log^2 n), O(R_{OT})) when the round complexity of the underlying oblivious transfer protocol is R_{OT}. Since constant-round semi-honest oblivious transfer protocols can be constructed under standard assumptions (such as the existence of enhanced trapdoor permutations), our result gives a \tilde{O}(\log^2 n)-round protocol under these assumptions. Previously, only an O(\max(n^{\epsilon}, R_{OT}))-round protocol was shown, where \epsilon>0 is an arbitrary constant. We obtain our MPC protocol by constructing a \tilde{O}(\log^2 n)-round CCA-secure commitment scheme in a black-box way under the assumption of the existence of one-way functions.
