We study the proof theory and algorithms for orthologic, a logical system based on ortholattices, which have shown practical relevance in simplification and normalization of verification conditions. Ortholattices weaken Boolean algebras while having po ...

Quantum Protocols for ML, Physics, and Finance

Grzegorz Adam Gluch

In this thesis, we give new protocols that offer a quantum advantage for problems in ML, Physics, and Finance.Quantum mechanics gives predictions that are inconsistent with local realism.The experiment proving this fact (Bell, 1964) gives a quantum protoco ...

This thesis demonstrates that it is feasible for systems code to expose a latency interface that describes its latency and related side effects for all inputs, just like the code's semantic interface describes its functionality and related side effects.Sem ...

Spectral and thermodynamic properties of interacting electrons with dynamical functionals

Tommaso Chiarotti

Empowered by ever-increasing computational power and algorithmic developments, electronic-structure simulations continue to drive research and innovation in materials science. In this context, ab-initio calculations offer an unbiased platform for the under ...

On the Privacy-Robustness-Utility Trilemma in Distributed Learning

Rachid Guerraoui, Nirupam Gupta, John Stephan, Youssef Allouah, Rafaël Benjamin Pinot

The ubiquity of distributed machine learning (ML) in sensitive public domain applications calls for algorithms that protect data privacy, while being robust to faults and adversarial behaviors. Although privacy and robustness have been extensively studied ...

A Toolbox for Barriers on Interactive Oracle Proofs

Alessandro Chiesa

Interactive oracle proofs (IOPs) are a proof system model that combines features of interactive proofs (IPs) and probabilistically checkable proofs (PCPs). IOPs have prominent applications in complexity theory and cryptography, most notably to constructing ...

The celebrated PCP Theorem states that any language in NP can be decided via a verifier that reads O(1) bits from a polynomially long proof. Interactive oracle proofs (IOP), a generalization of PCPs, allow the verifier to interact with the prover for multi ...

Zero-Knowledge IOPs with Linear-Time Prover and Polylogarithmic-Time Verifier

Alessandro Chiesa, Siqi Liu

Interactive oracle proofs (IOPs) are a multi-round generalization of probabilistically checkable proofs that play a fundamental role in the construction of efficient cryptographic proofs. We present an IOP that simultaneously achieves the properties of zer ...

Spatial Isolation Implies Zero Knowledge Even in a Quantum World

Alessandro Chiesa

Zero knowledge plays a central role in cryptography and complexity. The seminal work of Ben-Or et al. (STOC 1988) shows that zero knowledge can be achieved unconditionally for any language in NEXP, as long as one is willing to make a suitable physical assu ...

On Succinct Non-interactive Arguments in Relativized Worlds

Alessandro Chiesa

Succinct non-interactive arguments of knowledge (SNARKs) are cryptographic proofs with strong efficiency properties. Applications of SNARKs often involve proving computations that include the SNARK verifier, a technique called recursive composition. Unfort ...
