Efficient Multivariate Low-Degree Tests via Interactive Oracle Proofs of Proximity for Polynomial Codes

In STARK-like zero -knowledge proofs, like those of the Starware company, the major algorithmic and mathematical breakthrough which enables such great performance in applications is the invention of very efficient "low degree test" of univariate polynomials. Our work enables to...

CBER Forum – Aggelos Kiayias (IOHK/ CARDANO)

This webinar features Aggelos Kiayias (IOHK/ Cardano) and will be hosted by Brett Falk (UPenn CS). Topic Rethinking Information Technology from a Decentralisation Perspective Abstract...

Call for Papers & Talks – 2nd Workshop on Decentralized Finance (Defi)

Our aim with this workshop is to sollicit contributions from both academia and industry, focused on addressing fundamental, timely and important questions at the centre of DeFi. As such, we offer two submission formats, as follows...

Zero-knowledge: Trust and Privacy on an Industrial Scale

One of the main obstacles to the deployment of blockchains is the fact that the data managed on a blockchain is publicly accessible. This is unthinkable in the health or banking sectors, for example. Zero-knowledge technologies can resolve precisely this...

Tokenomics 2021: November 18-19

Tokenomics is an international forum for theory, design, analysis, implementation and applications of blockchains and smart contracts. The goal of the conference is to bring...

CBER Forum – Amy WHITAKER (NYU)

This webinar features Amy Whitaker (NYU) and will be hosted by David Yermack (NYU Stern). The topic will be « Fractional Equity in Art: Applications of the Coase Theorem and Blockchain to New Structures of Pay for Creative Labor...

Proceedings of Tokenomics 2020

Tokenomics is an international forum for theory, design, analysis, implementation and applications of blockchains and smart contracts. The goal of the conference is to bring together economists, computer science researchers and practitioners working on blockchains in a unique program featuring...

Tokens and Icos : a Review of the Economic Literature

Tokens and ICOs: A review of the Economic Literature, with Andrea Canidio, Vincent Danos and Stefania Marcassa, This article is a part of Principles of Blockchain Systems, Synthesis Lectures on Computer Science, 2021, Vol. 9, No. 2 About the book...

Multi-client Inner-product Functional Encryption in the Random-Oracle Model

Multi-client functional encryption (MCFE) is an extension of functional encryption (FE) in which the decryption procedure involves ciphertexts from multiple parties. In this paper, we consider MCFE schemes supporting encryption labels, which allow the encryptor to limit the amount of...

2-Step Multi-client Quadratic Functional Encryption from Decentralized Function-Hiding Inner-Product

In this paper, we present a multi-client quadratic functional encryption (MCQFE) scheme from function-hiding inner-product (FHIP). The main challenge in such construction is that all the clients require the access to the master secret key of the underlying FHIP scheme...
