Byzantine Distributed Function Computation

We study the distributed function computation problem with $k$ users of which at most $s$ may be controlled by an adversary and characterize the set of functions of the sources the decoder can reconstruct robustly in the following sense -- if the users behave honestly, the function is recovered with high probability (w.h.p.); if they behave adversarially, w.h.p, either one of the adversarial users will be identified or the function is recovered with vanishingly small distortion.

Randomness Requirements for Three-Secret Sharing

We study a secret sharing problem with three secrets where the secrets are allowed to be related to each other, i.e., only certain combinations of the three secrets are permitted. The dealer produces three shares such that every pair of shares reveals a unique secret and reveals nothing about the other two secrets, other than what can be inferred from the revealed secret. For the case of binary secrets, we exactly determine the minimum amount of randomness required by the dealer, for each possible set of permitted combinations. Our characterization is based on new lower and upper bounds.
