For odd integers p ≥ 1 (and p = ∞), we show that the Closest Vector Problem in the ℓp norm (CVP_p) over rank n lattices cannot be solved in 2^(1-≥) n time for any constant ≥ 0 unless the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis (SETH) fails. We then extend this result to almost all values of p ≥ 1, not including the even integers. This comes...
We consider Boolean circuits over the full binary basis. We prove a (3+1/86)n-o(n) lower bound onthe size of such a circuit for an explicitly definedpredicate, namely an affine disperser for sublinear dimension. This improves the 3n-o(n) bound of Norbert Blum (1984).The proof is based on the gate elimination technique extended with the following three ideas. We generalize the computational model by...
In this note, we prove lower bounds on the amount of entropy of random sources necessary for secure message authentication. We consider the problem of non-interactive c-time message authentication using a weak secret key having min-entropy k. We show that existing constructions using (c+1)-wise independent hash functions are optimal. This result resolves one of the main questions left open by the...
