Imposibility of bias-resistant coin tossing (Cleve'86) and its connection to modern notion o...

First, I'll discuss Cleve's result really quickly, as there's a natural generalization of it which may be useful for your understanding. Let $X\sim\mathcal{D}$ be some random variable. A common notion …

Does shared randomness between two cryptographic primitives complicate the hybrid argument f...

Yes, you are right. A formal definition of IND-CPA is indeed missing in my question. Here, I informally use the term "IND-CPA" to refer to the property that an encryption scheme can result in pseudor …

BGW Multiplication: How does it work?

We can use the notation of the source document, except I will say we are trying to compute $ab = c$ (for $a,b,c\in\mathbb{F}_p$), so I can use $x$ as a variable when discussing polynomials. Let $a_1,\ …

Secret Sharing Floating point numbers in IEEE-754 Format

Note that your first linked paper open-sourced their code here. The second paper doesn't have code that is nearly as easy to track down. It mentions using Sharemind and secrec. I can find the paper on …

Securely sort lists of numbers from two parties

The problem has an "easy solution" using general techniques. There are extensions of Yao's Millionaries problem about how to securely compute any circuit $C(x, y)$. This is an entire field of study, …

Find the product of two sums via SMPC

Yes it is, see for example this page. Note that multiplication requires $O(n^2)$ additional communication, in contrast to addition (which is free).
