An exciting new development in differential privacy is the shuffled model, in which an anonymous channel enables non-interactive, differentially private protocols with error much smaller than what is possible in the local model, while…
Privacy has been a major motivation for distributed problem optimization. However, even though several methods have been proposed to evaluate it, none of them is widely used. The Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) is a…
Multi-server single-message private information retrieval is studied in the presence of side information. In this problem, $K$ independent messages are replicatively stored at $N$ non-colluding servers. The user wants to privately download…
Consider the problem of source coding in networks with multiple receiving terminals, each having access to some kind of side information. In this case, standard coding techniques are either prohibitively complex to decode, or require…
A single unicast index coding problem (SUICP) with symmetric neighboring interference (SNI) has $K$ messages and $K$ receivers, the $k$th receiver $R_{k}$ wanting the $k$th message $x_{k}$ and having the interference with $D$ messages after…
We consider the N-user broadcast erasure channel with public feedback and side information. Before the beginning of transmission, each receiver knows a function of the messages of some of the other receivers. This situation arises naturally…
This paper considers the secretive coded caching problem with shared caches in which no user must have access to the files that it did not demand. In a shared cache network, the users are served by a smaller number of helper caches and each…
This paper analyzes the fundamental limits of strate- gic communication in network settings. Strategic communication differs from the conventional communication paradigms in in- formation theory since it involves different objectives for…
A secret can be an encrypted message or a private key to decrypt the ciphertext. One of the main issues in cryptography is keeping this secret safe. Entrusting secret to one person or saving it in a computer can conclude betrayal of the…
We study the problem of single-server multi-message private information retrieval with side information. One user wants to recover $N$ out of $K$ independent messages which are stored at a single server. The user initially possesses a…
We consider the "coded cooperative data exchange problem" for general graphs. In this problem, given a graph G=(V,E) representing clients in a broadcast network, each of which initially hold a (not necessarily disjoint) set of information…
We consider the problem of storing data in a distributed manner over $T$ servers. We require the data (i) to be recoverable from the $T$ servers, and (ii) to remain private from any $T-1$ colluding servers, where privacy is quantified in…
Restricted Syndrome Decoding (ResSD) is a variant of linear code decoding problem where each of the error's entries must belong to a fixed small set of values. This problem underlies the security of CROSS, a post-quantum signature scheme…
We consider the problem of private information retrieval (PIR) over a distributed storage system. The storage system consists of $N$ non-colluding databases, each storing a coded version of $M$ messages. In the PIR problem, the user wishes…
Index coded PSK modulation over an AWGN broadcast channel, for a given index coding problem (ICP) is studied. For a chosen index code and an arbitrary mapping (of broadcast vectors to PSK signal points), we have derived a decision rule for…
We construct error correcting codes for jointly transmitting a finite set of independent messages to an 'informed receiver' which has prior knowledge of the values of some subset of the messages as side information. The transmitter is…
Network coding is a new technique to transmit data through a network by letting the intermediate nodes combine the packets they receive. Given a network, the network coding solvability problem decides whether all the packets requested by…
Decentralized coded caching scheme, introduced by Maddah-Ali and Niesen, assumes that the caches are filled with no coordination. This work identifies a decentralized coded caching scheme -- under the assumption of uncoded placement -- for…
We consider the problem of polar coding for transmission over $m$-user multiple access channels. In the proposed scheme, all users encode their messages using a polar encoder, while a multi-user successive cancellation decoder is deployed…
Percolation based graph matching algorithms rely on the availability of seed vertex pairs as side information to efficiently match users across networks. Although such algorithms work well in practice, there are other types of side…
