Robuster Combiners for Oblivious Transfer [PDF]

, 2007
A (k; n)-robust combiner for a primitive F takes as input n candidate implementations of F and constructs an implementation of F, which is secure assuming that at least k of the input candidates are secure. Such constructions provide robustness against insecure implementations and wrong assumptions underlying the candidate schemes.

AOT: Anonymization by Oblivious Transfer

IACR Cryptol. ePrint Arch., 2021
We introduce AOT, an anonymous communication system based on mix network architecture that uses oblivious transfer (OT) to deliver messages. Using OT to deliver messages helps AOT resist blending ($n-1$) attacks and helps AOT preserve receiver anonymity, even if a covert adversary controls all nodes in AOT.

Beyond the Sober State: The Work of Drunkenness in British Bureaucracy

Sociology Lens, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article reports the drinking stories of British civil service clerical workers based at a large civil service office complex located in Newcastle upon Tyne between 1968 and 1993. It uses these stories to develop an account of state formation that takes seriously the place of joy, solidarity, contention, and exhaustion within public sector

Performance of Practical Quantum Oblivious Key Distribution

PRX Quantum
Motivated by the applications of secure multi-party computation as a privacy-protecting data analysis tool, and identifying oblivious transfer as one of its main practical enablers, we propose a practical realization of randomized quantum oblivious ...

Extending Oblivious Transfers Efficiently [PDF]

, 2003
We consider the problem of extending oblivious transfers: Given a small number of oblivious transfers “for free,” can one implement a large number of oblivious transfers? Beaver has shown how to extend oblivious transfers given a one-way function. However, this protocol is inefficient in practice, in part due to its non-black-box use of the underlying ...

Is Having a Pain Having an Unshareable Particular?

Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Do I have something no one else can have when I am in pain? This puzzle about the so‐called ‘privacy of ownership’ of sensations is a special case of the problem of whether the states and qualities of a subject are particulars. (For if someone ‘has’ a pain, then that someone ‘is in’ a pain state and vice versa.) The debate addressing the ...

The Scholar Imprisoned: Young‐Bok Shin's Decolonial Thought Against (Sub) Imperialisms in East Asia

Sociological Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article reads Young‐Bok Shin (1941–2016) as a decolonial thinker who theorized transformative worldmaking from the standpoint of the oppressed, rooted in the historical experiences of East Asia. Against the (sub)imperial “logic of sameness” that structures colonial modernity in his social world, Shin advances gongbu (studying) as a ...
