D. Boneh and R. Venkatesan have recently proposed an approach to proving
that a reasonably small portions of most significant bits of the
Diffie--Hellman key modulo a prime are as secure the the whole key. Some
further improvements and generalizations have been obtained by
I. M. Gonzales Vasco ... more >>>

Boneh and Venkatesan have recently proposed a polynomial time
algorithm for recovering a ``hidden'' element $\alpha$ of a
finite field $\F_p$ of $p$ elements from rather short
strings of the most significant bits of the remainder
mo\-du\-lo $p$ of $\alpha t$ for several values of $t$ selected uniformly
at random ... more >>>

Collective Coin-Flipping is a classical problem where n
computationally unbounded processors are trying to generate a random
bit in a setting where only a single broadcast channel is available
for communication. The protocol is said to be b(n)-resilient if any
adversary that can corrupt up to b(n) players, still cannot ... more >>>
