Liar, Liar, Coins on Fire!

Proceedings of the 22nd ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security, 2015
We show that equivocation, i.e., making conflicting statements to others in a distributed protocol, can be monetarily disincentivized by the use of crypto-currencies such as Bitcoin. To this end, we design completely decentralized non-equivocation contracts, which make it possible to penalize an equivocating party by the loss of its money.

SUPER LIARS

The Review of Symbolic Logic, 2010
Kripke’s theory of truth offered a trivalent semantics for a language which, like English, contains a truth predicate and means of self-reference; but it did so by severely restricting the expressive power of the logic. In Kripke’s analysis, the Liar (e.g.,This very sentence is not true) receives the indeterminate truth value, but this fact cannot be ...

Liar's domination

Networks, 2009
AbstractAssume that each vertex of a graph G is the possible location for an “intruder” such as a thief, or a saboteur, a fire in a facility or some possible processor fault in a computer network. A device at a vertex v is assumed to be able to detect the intruder at any vertex in its closed neighborhood N[v] and to identify at which vertex in N[v] the

Three Thresholds for a Liar

Combinatorics, Probability and Computing, 1992
Motivated by the problem of making correct computations from partly false information, we study a corruption of the classic game “Twenty Questions” in which the player who answers the yes-or-no questions is permitted to lie up to a fixed fraction r of the time.

Liars

2021
Abstract Liars are causing devastating problems. They are endangering public health. They are threatening self-government. They are destroying the reputation of good people—and inflating the reputation of people who are not so good. Nonetheless, most falsehoods ought not to be censored or regulated, even if they are lies.

"Liar! Liar! Pants on Fire!" The Liar as Educator in Children's Literature

2004
Lying, being taught not to lie, and learning when, where, and how to lie are all essential elements in growing up, at every stage of childhood and adolescence. Lying in all its guises pervades children's literature but until now has largely avoided the attention of critics as a subject in itself.
