A practical scheme for non-interactive verifiable secret sharing
Abstract
This paper presents an extremely efficient, non-interactive protocol for verifiable secret sharing. Verifiable secret sharing (VSS) is a way of bequeathing information to a set of processors such that a quorum of processors is needed to access the information. VSS is a fundamental tool of cryptography and distributed computing. Seemingly difficult problems such as secret bidding, fair voting, leader election, and flipping a fair coin have simple one-round reductions to VSS. There is a constant-round reduction from Byzantine Agreement to non-interactive VSS. Non-interactive VSS provides asynchronous networks with a constant-round simulation of simultaneous broadcast networks whenever even a bare majority of processors are good. VSS is constantly repeated in the simulation of fault-free protocols by faulty systems. As verifiable secret sharing is a bottleneck for so many results, it is essential to find efficient solutions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
