| Abstract: | Bottleneck complexity is an efficiency measure of secure multiparty computation (MPC) introduced by Boyle et al. (ICALP 2018) to achieve load-balancing. Roughly speaking, it is defined as the maximum communication complexity required by any player within the protocol execution. Since it was shown to be impossible to achieve sublinear bottleneck complexity in the number of players $n$ for all functions, a prior work constructed MPC protocols with low bottleneck complexity for specific functions. However, the previous protocol for symmetric functions needs to assume a computational primitive of garbled circuits and its unconditionally secure variant has exponentially large bottleneck complexity in the depth of an arithmetic formula computing the function, which limits the class of symmetric functions the protocol can compute with sublinear bottleneck complexity in $n$. In this work, we make the following contributions to unconditionally secure MPC protocols for symmetric functions with sublinear bottleneck complexity in $n$. \begin{itemize} \item We propose for the first time unconditionally secure MPC protocols computing \textit{any} symmetric function with sublinear bottleneck complexity in $n$. Technically, our first protocol is inspired by the one-time truth-table protocol by Ishai et al. (TCC 2013) but our second and third protocols use a novel technique to express the one-time truth-table as an array of two or higher dimensions and achieve better trade-offs. \item We propose an unconditionally secure protocol tailored to the AND function with lower bottleneck complexity. It avoids pseudorandom functions used by the previous protocol for the AND function, preserving bottleneck complexity up to a logarithmic factor in $n$. \item By combining our protocol for the AND function with Bloom filters, we construct an unconditionally secure protocol for private set intersection (PSI), which computes the intersection of players' private sets. This is the first PSI protocol with sublinear bottleneck complexity in $n$ and to the best of our knowledge, there has been no such protocol even under cryptographic assumptions. \end{itemize} |
