🪑 Session chair: Akira (Duties: Read material above-average carefully 🤓; prepare fallback discussions/questions (worst-case: just prepare some quiz questions about the material) 🙋. Prepare a few slides to guide the session through subtopics (this is not supposed to be a detailed summary of the material)

🎯 Goals

  • Good overview of the situation
    • what is the issue?
    • how much of it can be generically remedied?
    • what are other strategies to deal with multi-round loss?

📝 Notes

Sept 18

  • Discussion about sanity check: sequential repetition of small-challenge-space protocols (e.g., some traditional Cut-and-Choose protocols)
    • Interactively, sequential repetition works for extraction.
    • With Fiat-Shamir, sequential repetition does not amplify security at all (can grind challenges).
    • Question: How is that reflected in AFK23’s Theorem 2?
    • Answer: The soundness/knowledge error gets very bad very quickly when increasing the number of rounds
