Abstract: | It is known that string (1,2)-OT and Rabin's OT are equivalent. However, two steps are required to construct a string $(1,2)$-OT from Rabin's OT. The first step is a construction of a bit (1,2)-OT from Rabin's OT, and the second step is a construction of a string $(1,2)$-OT from the bit (1,2)-OT. No direct reduction is known. In this paper, we show a direct reduction of string (1,2)-OT to Rabin's OT by using a deterministic randomness extractor. Our reduction is much more efficient than the previous two-step reduction. |
