A path in an edge-colored graph is called a \emph{rainbow path} if all edges on it have pairwise distinct colors. For $k\geq 1$, the \emph{rainbow-$k$-connectivity} of a graph $G$, denoted $rc_k(G)$, is the minimum number of colors required…
We study the problem of performing counting queries at different levels in hierarchical structures while preserving individuals' privacy. Motivated by applications, we propose a new error measure for this problem by considering a…
Differential Privacy protects individuals' data when statistical queries are published from aggregated databases: applying "obfuscating" mechanisms to the query results makes the released information less specific but, unavoidably, also…

A path in an edge-colored graph is \textit{rainbow} if no two edges of it are colored the same. The graph is said to be \textit{rainbow connected} if there is a rainbow path between every pair of vertices. If there is a rainbow shortest…
In differentially private (DP) tabular data synthesis, the consensus is that statistical models are better than neural network (NN)-based methods. However, we argue that this conclusion is incomplete and overlooks the challenge of densely…
We study the problem of releasing a differentially private (DP) synthetic graph $G'$ that well approximates the triangle-motif sizes of all cuts of any given graph $G$, where a motif in general refers to a frequently occurring subgraph…

Graph neural networks (GNNs) have gained an increasing amount of popularity due to their superior capability in learning node embeddings for various graph inference tasks, but training them can raise privacy concerns. To address this, we…
We prove the conjecture stated in Appendix F.3 of [Zhu et al. (2022)]: among all conversion rules that map a R\'enyi Differential Privacy (RDP) profile $\tau \mapsto \rho(\tau)$ to a valid hypothesis-testing trade-off $f$, the rule based on…
We consider the problem of fitting a linear model to data held by individuals who are concerned about their privacy. Incentivizing most players to truthfully report their data to the analyst constrains our design to mechanisms that provide…
