In this paper we study the cryptographic complexity of non-trivial witness-indistinguishable ($WI$) arguments of knowledge. We establish that:

- Assuming that $NP\not\subseteq P/poly,$ the existence of a constant-round computational $WI$ argument of knowledge for $NP$ implies that (infinitely-often) auxiliary-input one-way functions exist.

- Assuming that $NP\not\subseteq P^{Sam}/poly,$ there is no ... more >>>

Alice and Bob are given $n$-bit integer pairs $(x,y)$ and $(a,b)$, respectively, and they must decide if $y=ax+b$. We prove that the randomised communication complexity of this Point–Line Incidence problem is $\Theta(\log n)$. This confirms a conjecture of Cheung, Hatami, Hosseini, and Shirley (CCC 2023) that the complexity is super-constant, ... more >>>

The linear problem specified by an $n \times n$ matrix $M$ over a finite field is the problem of computing the product of $M$ and a given vector $x$. We present optimal error-tolerant random self-reductions (also known as worst-case to average-case reductions) for all linear problems: Given a linear-size circuit ... more >>>
