[论文解读] Non-Malleable Extractors and Non-Malleable Codes: Partially Optimal Constructions
本文提出了一类非完全最优的构造方法,用于非污染提取器和非污染编码,采用新颖技术显著降低了熵需求和码率要求。该工作首次在2-分裂状态模型中实现了常数码率的非污染编码,并在两轮隐私放大中实现了最优熵损失,推动了伪随机性和编码理论中长期存在的开放性问题的解决。
The recent line of study on randomness extractors has been a great success, resulting in exciting new techniques, new connections, and breakthroughs to long standing open problems in several seemingly different topics. These include seeded non-malleable extractors, privacy amplification protocols with an active adversary, independent source extractors (and explicit Ramsey graphs), and non-malleable codes in the split state model. However, in all cases there is still a gap to optimum and the motivation to close this gap remains strong. In this paper, we introduce a set of new techniques to further push the frontier in the above questions. Our techniques lead to improvements in all of the above questions, and in several cases partially optimal constructions. Specifically, we obtain: 1. A seeded non-malleable extractor with seed length $O(log n)+log^{1+o(1)}(1/\\epsilon) and entropy requirement O(log log n+log(1/\\epsilon)), where the entropy requirement is asymptotically optimal by a recent result of Gur and Shinkar \\cite{GurS17}; 2. A two-round privacy amplification protocol with optimal entropy loss for security parameter up to \\Omega(k), which solves the privacy amplification problem completely; 3. A two-source extractor for entropy O(\\frac{log n log log n}{log log log n}), which also gives an explicit Ramsey graph on N vertices with no clique or independent set of size (log N)^{O(\\frac{log log log N}{log log log log N})}; and 4. The first explicit non-malleable code in the 2-split state model with \\emph{constant} rate, which has been a major goal in the study of non-malleable codes for quite some time. One small caveat is that the error of this code is only (an arbitrarily small) constant, but we can also achieve negligible error with rate \\Omega(log log log n/log log n), which already improves the rate in \\cite{Li17} exponentially.

主要发现
- 构造出种子非污染提取器,种子长度为 O(log n) + log^{1+o(1)}(1/ε),熵需求为 O(log log n + log(1/ε)),与 Gur 和 Shinkar(2018)的渐近下界完全匹配。
- 实现了两轮隐私放大协议,安全参数高达 Ω(k) 时熵损失最优,彻底解决了该问题。
- 构造出两源提取器,熵需求为 O(log n log log n / log log log n),从而得到一个显式拉姆齐图,其不含大小为 (log N)^{O(log log log N / log log log log N)} 的团或独立集。
- 首次在2-分裂状态模型中构造出显式常数码率的非污染编码,可实现可忽略误差,码率为 Ω(log log log n / log log n)。
- 构造使用了生成矩阵确保子矩阵满列秩的二元线性码,从而实现高码率、低误差的编码。
- 最终非污染编码的误差被限制在 ε 以内,码率为 Ω(log log log(1/ε) / log log(1/ε))(可忽略误差),相比先前工作实现指数级改进。
