dc.description.abstractThis dissertation includes four contributions concerning secure multiparty computation. The first contribution is a new lossy threshold encryption scheme. This is the first encryption scheme that is both a lossy and a threshold encryption scheme. The second contribution is a new oblivious transfer protocol secure against erasure-free one-sided active adaptive adversaries. The third contribution is a new two-party computation protocol for the evaluation of boolean circuits that is secure against erasure-free one-sided active adaptive adversaries. As a building block of this protocol, a new cut-and-choose oblivious transfer protocol is designed. The fourth contribution is a new multiparty computation protocol for the evaluation of arithmetic circuits that is secure against covert adversaries. Protocols that are part of the second, third and fourth contributions improve the communication complexity, the number of public key encryption operations and the number of exponentiation operations over existing protocols for the same problems that provide the same or higher levels of security.en_US
