Title:
Shared OT and Its Applications to Unconditional Secure Integer Equality, Comparison and Bit-Decomposition

Authors: Lucas Piske, Jeroen van de Graaf, Anderson C. A. Nascimento, Ni Trieu

Abstract:

We present unconditionally perfectly secure protocols in the
semi-honest setting for several functionalities: (1) private elementwise
equality; (2) private bitwise integer comparison; and (3) bit-decomposition.
These protocols are built upon a new concept called Shared Oblivious Transfer (Shared OT). Shared OT extends the one-out-of-N String OT by replacing strings with integers modulo M and allowing additive secret-sharing of all inputs and outputs. These extensions can be implemented
by simple local computations without incurring additional OT invocations. We believe our Shared OT may be of independent interest.

Our protocols demonstrate the best round, communication, and computational complexities compared to all other protocols secure in a similar setting. Moreover, all of our protocols involve either 2 or 3 rounds.
