    Classical complexity reductions among hard lattice problems

    The difficulty of solving a hard lattice problem depends significantly on the choice of its parameters. One cannot meaningfully discuss cryptographic constructions — especially FHE schemes — without first understanding the complexity landscape of lattice problems. This post describes several classical (i.e., non-quantum) reductions among different lattice problems. If you only care about the results,...

    Semi-Honest Oblivious Transfer (OT) Primitives

    This page describes a few basic protocols for oblivious transfer (OT) schemes and some theoretical results related to them. The next post will consider OT extensions — which are needed when performing a large number of oblivious transfers.
