[Resource Topic] 2018/297: Fine-Grained Secure Computation

Welcome to the resource topic for 2018/297

Title:
Fine-Grained Secure Computation

Authors: Matteo Campanelli, Rosario Gennaro

Abstract:

This paper initiates a study of Fine Grained Secure Computation: i.e. the construction of secure computation primitives against “moderately complex” adversaries. We present definitions and constructions for compact Fully Homomorphic Encryption and Verifiable Computation secure against (non-uniform) \mathsf{NC}^1 adversaries. Our results do not require the existence of one-way functions and hold under a widely believed separation assumption, namely \mathsf{NC}^1 \subsetneq \oplus \mathsf{L} / \mathsf{poly}. We also present two application scenarios for our model: (i)hardware chips that prove their own correctness, and (ii) protocols against rational adversaries potentially relevant to the Verifier’s Dilemma in smart-contracts transactions such as Ethereum.
