This paper investigates the maximal secret communication rate over a wiretap channel
subject to reliability and secrecy constraints at a given blocklength. New achievability and …

This monograph presents a unified treatment of single-and multi-user problems in
Shannon's information theory where we depart from the requirement that the error …

Fuzzy extractors (Dodis et al., SIAM J. Computing 2008) convert repeated noisy readings of
a high-entropy secret into the same uniformly distributed key. A minimum condition for the …

The task of manipulating correlated random variables in a distributed setting has received
attention in the fields of both Information Theory and Computer Science. Often shared …

We consider information theoretic secret key (SK) agreement and secure function
computation by multiple parties observing correlated data, with access to an interactive …

This book offers a mathematical foundation for modern cryptography. It is primarily intended
as an introduction for graduate students. Readers should have basic knowledge of …

The information-theoretic approach to security entails harnessing the correlated
randomness available in nature to establish security. It uses tools from information theory …

The strong converse for a coding theorem shows that the optimal asymptotic rate possible
with vanishing error cannot be improved by allowing a fixed error. Building on a method …

This monograph describes principles of information theoretic secrecy generation by
legitimate parties with public discussion in the presence of an eavesdropper. The parties are …

A perennial theme of information theory is to find new methods to determine the fundamental
limits of various communication systems, which potentially helps the engineers to find better …
