Private information retrieval (PIR) is the problem of retrieving as efficiently as possible, one out of $K$ messages from $N$ non-communicating replicated databases (each holds all $K$ messages) while keeping the identity of the desired…

This paper investigates the problem of Leaky Private Information Retrieval with Side Information (L-PIR-SI), providing a fundamental characterization of the trade-off among leaky privacy, side information, and download cost. We propose a…

We consider the problem of symmetric private information retrieval (SPIR) with user-side common randomness. In SPIR, a user retrieves a message out of $K$ messages from $N$ non-colluding and replicated databases in such a way that no single…

The problem of cache enabled private information retrieval (PIR) is considered in which a user wishes to privately retrieve one out of $K$ messages, each of size $L$ bits from $N$ distributed databases. The user has a local cache of storage…

We consider the problem of private information retrieval (PIR) of a single message out of $K$ messages from $N$ replicated and non-colluding databases where a cache-enabled user (retriever) of cache-size $S$ possesses side information in…

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…

A private information retrieval scheme is a mechanism that allows a user to retrieve any one out of $K$ messages from $N$ non-communicating replicated databases, each of which stores all $K$ messages, without revealing anything about the…

We consider the problem of private information retrieval (PIR) from $N$ non-colluding and replicated databases when the user is equipped with a cache that holds an uncoded fraction $r$ from each of the $K$ stored messages in the databases.…
