Abstract. We investigate the problem of solving traditional combinatorial graph problems using secure multi-party computation techniques, focusing on the shortest path and the maximum flow problems. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time these problems have been addressed in a general multi-party computation setting. Our study highlights several complexity gaps and suggests the exploration of various trade-offs, while also offering protocols that are efficient enough to solve real-world problems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
