Abstract

In this paper we consider 1-round almost perfectly secure message transmission protocols with optimal transmission rate, and give constructions for two levels of connectivity, n = 2t + k and \(n = (2+c)t, c > \frac{1}{t}\). Here n and t are the total number of wires and the number of corrupted wires, respectively, and k and c are constants. The first protocol has a modular construction that with appropriate instantiations of each module results in optimal protocols for n = 2t + k. The second protocol is the first construction for optimal protocol when n = (2 + c)t.
