Title:
OmniBA: Round-Efficient BA with Quadratic Communication under Mixed Faults

Authors: Simon Holmgaard Kamp, Julian Loss, Kartik Nayak, Kecheng Shi

Abstract:

We present a simple and efficient Byzantine Agreement protocol in the mixed fault model where up to t parties can be Byzantine, up to s parties can be send-omission, and up to r parties can be receive-omission such that 2t+s+r<n. Our synchronous protocol greatly improves over the efficiency of the state-of-the-art solution due to Loss and Stern [TCC '23]. Specifically, our protocol incurs an expected communication complexity of O(n^2) instead of O(n^5) in their construction, while maintaining the same resilience. Our protocol terminates in an expected constant number of rounds, provided that a constant fraction of parties are non-faulty.
