Key-exchange protocols have been overlooked as a possible means for implementing oblivious transfer (OT). In this paper we present a protocol for mutual exchange of secrets, 1-out-of-2 OT and coin flipping similar to Diffie-Hellman protocol…
Markov decision processes (MDPs) are known to be sensitive to parameter specification. Distributionally robust MDPs alleviate this issue by allowing for \emph{ambiguity sets} which give a set of possible distributions over parameter sets.…
The quest for an algorithm that solves an $n\times n$ linear system in $O(n^2)$ time complexity, or $O(n^2 \text{poly}(1/\epsilon))$ when solving up to $\epsilon$ relative error, is a long-standing open problem in numerical linear algebra…
We study the robust communication complexity of maximum matching. Edges of an arbitrary $n$-vertex graph $G$ are randomly partitioned between Alice and Bob independently and uniformly. Alice has to send a single message to Bob such that Bob…
