Private Information Retrieval (PIR) allows a client to privately access a database without revealing which element is accessed. Initial PIR protocols based on Ring Learning with Errors (RLWE) demonstrated the practicality of PIR, but…
Consider the problem of Private Information Retrieval (PIR), where a user wishes to retrieve a single message from $N$ non-communicating and non-colluding databases (servers). All servers store the same set of $M$ messages and they respond…
We consider private information retrieval (PIR) for distributed storage systems (DSSs) with noncolluding nodes where data is stored using a non maximum distance separable (MDS) linear code. It was recently shown that if data is stored using…
Private information retrieval (PIR) gets renewed attentions due to its information-theoretic reformulation and its application in distributed storage system (DSS). The general PIR model considers a coded database containing $N$ servers…
In many practical settings, the user needs to retrieve information from a server in a periodic manner, over multiple rounds of communication. In this paper, we discuss the setting in which this information needs to be retrieved privately,…
The widespread use of cloud computing services raises the question of how one can delegate the processing tasks to the untrusted distributed parties without breeching the privacy of its data and algorithms. Motivated by the algorithm…
We study the private information retrieval (PIR) problem under arbitrary collusion pattern for replicated databases. We find its capacity, which is the same as the capacity of the original PIR problem with the number of databases $N$…
In (single-server) Private Information Retrieval (PIR), a server holds a large database $DB$ of size $n$, and a client holds an index $i \in [n]$ and wishes to retrieve $DB[i]$ without revealing $i$ to the server. It is well known that…
In quantum private information retrieval (QPIR), a user retrieves a classical file from multiple servers by downloading quantum systems without revealing the identity of the file. The QPIR capacity is the maximal achievable ratio of the…
A private information retrieval (PIR) scheme allows a user to retrieve a file from a database without revealing any information on the file being requested. As of now, PIR schemes have been proposed for several kinds of storage systems,…
We consider the problem of single-round private information retrieval (PIR) from $N$ replicated databases. We consider the case when $B$ databases are outdated (unsynchronized), or even worse, adversarial (Byzantine), and therefore, can…
We consider constructing capacity-achieving linear codes with minimum message size for private information retrieval (PIR) from $N$ non-colluding databases, where each message is coded using maximum distance separable (MDS) codes, such that…
In a User-Private Information Retrieval (UPIR) scheme, a set of users collaborate to retrieve files from a database without revealing to observers which participant in the scheme requested the file. Protocols have been proposed based on…
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…
In Pliable Private Information Retrieval (PPIR) with a single server, messages are partitioned into $\Gamma$ non-overlapping classes. The user wants to retrieve a message from its desired class without revealing the identity of the desired…
We consider the problem of cache-aided Multiuser Private Information Retrieval (MuPIR) which is an extension of the single-user cache-aided PIR problem to the case of multiple users. In MuPIR, each of the $K_{\rm u}$ cache-equipped users…
We introduce the problem of private information delivery (PID), comprised of $K$ messages, a user, and $N$ servers (each holds $M\leq K$ messages) that wish to deliver one out of $K$ messages to the user privately, i.e., without revealing…
Double blind $T$-private information retrieval (DB-TPIR) enables two users, each of whom specifies an index ($\theta_1, \theta_2$, resp.), to efficiently retrieve a message $W(\theta_1,\theta_2)$ labeled by the two indices, from a set of…
Retrieving up-to-date information from a publicly accessible database poses significant threats to the user's privacy. {\em Private information retrieval} (PIR) protocols allow a user to retrieve any entry from a database, without revealing…
In Private Information Retrieval (PIR), a client queries an n-bit database in order to retrieve an entry of her choice, while maintaining privacy of her query value. Chor, Goldreich, Kushilevitz, and Sudan showed that, in the…
