Private information retrieval (PIR) protocols make it possible to retrieve a file from a database without disclosing any information about the identity of the file being retrieved. These protocols have been rigorously explored from an…
We rethink the definition of privacy in multi-server, graph-replicated private information retrieval (PIR) systems, and introduce a novel setting where the user's privacy is governed by the servers' storage structure. In particular, while…
We design new minimal-subpacketization schemes for information-theoretic private information retrieval on graph-based replicated databases. In graph-based replication, the system consists of $K$ files replicated across $N$ servers according…
In the private information retrieval (PIR) problem, a user wants to retrieve a file from a database without revealing any information about the desired file's identity to the servers that store the database. In this paper, we study the PIR…
In Private Information Retrieval (PIR), one wants to download a file from a database without revealing to the database which file is being downloaded. Much attention has been paid to the case of the database being encoded across several…
Private information retrieval (PIR) protocols ensure that a user can download a file from a database without revealing any information on the identity of the requested file to the servers storing the database. While existing protocols…
We consider the problem of private information retrieval (PIR) of a single message out of $K$ messages from $N$ non-colluding and non-replicated databases. Different from the majority of the existing literature, which considers the case of…
We consider the private information retrieval (PIR) problem for a multigraph-based replication system, where each set of $r$ files is stored on two of the servers according to an underlying $r$-multigraph. Our goal is to establish upper and…
Private information retrieval (PIR) protocols allow a user to retrieve entries of a database without revealing the index of the desired item. Information-theoretical privacy can be achieved by the use of several servers and specific…
We reformulate the definition of privacy in the private information retrieval (PIR) problem to accommodate flexible privacy requirements. We focus on graph-replicated PIR, with a generalized privacy requirement, instead of requiring all…
A private information retrieval (PIR) scheme is a protocol that allows a user to retrieve a file from a database without revealing the identity of the desired file to a curious database. Given a distributed data storage system, efficient…
Private Information Retrieval (PIR) schemes allow a client to retrieve any file of interest, while hiding the file identity from the database servers. In contrast to most existing PIR schemes that assume honest-but-curious servers, we study…
Private Information Retrieval (PIR) is a fundamental cryptographic primitive that enables users to retrieve data from a database without revealing which item is being accessed, thereby preserving query privacy. However, PIR protocols also…
In this paper, the problem of providing privacy to users requesting data over a network from a distributed storage system (DSS) is considered. The DSS, which is considered as the multi-terminal destination of the network from the user's…
A private information retrieval (PIR) protocol guarantees that a user can privately retrieve files stored in a database without revealing any information about the identity of the requested file. Existing information-theoretic PIR protocols…
In this paper, we study the problem of private information retrieval (PIR) in both graph-based and multigraph-based replication systems, where each file is stored on exactly two servers, and any pair of servers shares at most $r$ files. We…
The problem of PIR in graph-based replication systems has received significant attention in recent years. A systematic study was conducted by Sadeh, Gu, and Tamo, where each file is replicated across two servers and the storage topology is…
We revisit the problem of symmetric private information retrieval (SPIR) in settings where the database replication is modeled by a simple graph. Here, each vertex corresponds to a server, and a message is replicated on two servers if and…
Private information retrieval (PIR) protocols allow a user to retrieve a data item from a database without revealing any information about the identity of the item being retrieved. Specifically, in information-theoretic $k$-server PIR, the…
We introduce the problem of symmetric private information retrieval (SPIR) on replicated databases modeled by a simple graph. In this model, each vertex corresponds to a server, and a message is replicated on two servers if and only if…
