Title:
Wyner-Ziv reconciliation for key exchange based on Ring-LWE

Authors: Charbel Saliba, Laura Luzzi, Cong Ling

Abstract:

We consider a key encapsulation mechanism (KEM) based on ring-LWE where reconciliation is performed on an N-dimensional lattice using Wyner-Ziv coding. More precisely, we consider Barnes-Wall lattices and use Micciancio and Nicolosi’s bounded distance decoder with polynomial complexity \mathcal{O}(N \log^2(N)). We show that in the asymptotic regime for large N, the achievable key rate is \Theta(\log N) bits per dimension, while the error probability P_e vanishes exponentially in N. Unlike previous works, our scheme does not require a dither.
