Rapidly verifiable aggregate signatures

Rachid Guerraoui, Gauthier Jérôme Timothée Voron, Martina Camaioni, Matteo Monti, Manuel José Ribeiro Vidigueira, Pierre-Louis Blaise Roman

A method for aggregating digital signatures comprises the following steps carried out by a signature aggregator: receiving first data packages from signers, each first data package comprising a signer identifier, a payload, and a payload signature; verifyi ...

Planetary-Scale Byzantine Fault Tolerance

Matteo Monti

The scale and pervasiveness of the Internet make it a pillar of planetary communication, industry and economy, as well as a fundamental medium for public discourse and democratic engagement. In stark contrast with the Internet's decentralized infrastructur ...

Chop Chop: Byzantine Atomic Broadcast to the Network Limit

Rachid Guerraoui, Gauthier Jérôme Timothée Voron, Martina Camaioni, Matteo Monti, Manuel José Ribeiro Vidigueira

At the heart of state machine replication, the celebrated technique enabling decentralized and secure universal computation, lies Atomic Broadcast, a fundamental communication primitive that orders, authenticates, and deduplicates messages. This paper pres ...

Carbon: Scaling Trusted Payments with Untrusted Machines

Rachid Guerraoui, Jovan Komatovic, Gauthier Jérôme Timothée Voron, Martina Camaioni, Matteo Monti, Manuel José Ribeiro Vidigueira, Pierre-Louis Blaise Roman

This paper introduces Carbon, a high-throughput system enabling asynchronous (safe) and consensus-free (efficient) payments and votes within a dynamic set of clients. Carbon is operated by a dynamic set of validators that may be reconfigured asynchronously ...

Byzantine-Resilient Learning Beyond Gradients: Distributing Evolutionary Search

Rachid Guerraoui, Andrei Kucharavy, Matteo Monti

Modern machine learning (ML) models are capable of impressive performances. However, their prowess is not due only to the improvements in their architecture and training algorithms but also to a drastic increase in computational power used to train them.|S ...

Oracular Byzantine Reliable Broadcast

Rachid Guerraoui, Martina Camaioni, Matteo Monti, Manuel José Ribeiro Vidigueira

Byzantine Reliable Broadcast (BRB) is a fundamental distributed computing primitive, with applications ranging from notifications to asynchronous payment systems. Motivated by practical consideration, we study Client-Server Byzantine Reliable Broadcast (CS ...

The consensus number of a cryptocurrency (extended version)

Rachid Guerraoui, Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi, Matej Pavlovic, Matteo Monti

Many blockchain-based algorithms, such as Bitcoin, implement a decentralized asset transfer system, often referred to as a cryptocurrency. As stated in the original paper by Nakamoto, at the heart of these systems lies the problem of preventing double-spen ...

Online Payments by Merely Broadcasting Messages

Rachid Guerraoui, Jovan Komatovic, Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi, Matej Pavlovic, Daniel Patrick Collins, Matteo Monti, Athanasios Xygkis, Andrei Tonkikh

We address the problem of online payments, where users can transfer funds among themselves. We introduce Astro, a system solving this problem efficiently in a decentralized, deterministic, and completely asynchronous manner. Astro builds on the insight tha ...

Scalable Byzantine Reliable Broadcast

Rachid Guerraoui, Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi, Matej Pavlovic, Matteo Monti

Byzantine reliable broadcast is a powerful primitive that allows a set of processes to agree on a message from a designated sender, even if some processes (including the sender) are Byzantine. Existing broadcast protocols for this setting scale poorly, as ...
